SIR HENRYâ€™S career as a knight has been thoroughly unremarkable. Well past his prime, this bumbling, naive warriorâ€™s fortunes change when he stumbles into defeating another knight. He also rescues the fair damsel ALISANE, who dreams of settling down and marrying her hero Sir Henry. But their happy partnership and domestic life is threatened when they are joined by MEGHAM. The young woman appeals to Sir Henryâ€™s ambitious side and urges him to follow his call to adventure. Sir Henry struggles as he juggles these two women and grapples with the true meaning of love. Esteemed author Robert Nathan takes us on a journey back in time to explore the wry mixture of fantasy and satire and the ever-elusive definitions of true love.

About the Author: Author of such revered books as PORTRAIT OF JENNIE, THE BISHOPâ€™S WIFE, MR. WHITTLE AND THE MORNING STAR, and STONECLIFF, Robert Nathan was born in New York City in 1894 and was educated at private schools in the United States and Switzerland. While attending Harvard University where he was a classmate with E.E. Cummings, Nathan was an editor of the Harvard Monthly, in which his first stories and poems appeared.

While at Cambridge, Nathan also found the time to become an accomplished cellist, a lightweight boxer, and Captain of the fencing team. After leaving college, Mr. Nathan devoted his time exclusively to writing until his passing in 1985. Early on, Nathanâ€™s work strengthened his reputation with both the public and peers. F. Scott Fitzgerald once referred to Robert Nathan as his favorite writer. During this period, the legendary Louis B. Mayer contracted him to Hollywood to become a screenwriter. Nathan ultimately didnâ€™t enjoy the experience, though the movie industry continually craved his work. Five of his novels have been made into films.

The aforementioned â€œPortrait of Jennieâ€ and â€œThe Bishopâ€™s Wife,â€ as well as â€œOne More Spring,â€ â€œWake Up and Dreamâ€ (from the novel â€œThe Enchanted Voyageâ€) and â€œColor of Evening.â€ Robert Nathan was the author of over fifty volumes of novels, poetry, and plays, and from this body of distinguished work he acquired a reputation as a master of satiric fantasy unique in American Letters. In the twilight of his career he was known as â€œThe Dean of Authorâ€™s,â€ since many prominent writers including Irving Stone and Irving Wallace sought out Nathanâ€™s guidance. A member of the National Institute of Arts and Letters for fifty years, Mr. Nathan called both Cape Cod and California home. Happily, his last fifteen years were spent in the companionship of his wife, English born actress, Anna Lee.
