Ken Russell

Broschiertes Buch

Elgar: The Erotic Variations / Delius: A Moment with Venus

Beschreibung

In another set of his new 'novel-biographies'. Ken Russell reinvents the quintessentially English Edward Elgar (1857-1934) and Frederick Delius (1862-1934). Very different in character, the two of them--both provincial lads--come alive in a new way.

Autor

Ken Russell is one of the most original, vibrant, and groundbreaking film and television directors of the recent era. His finest films such as The Devils, The Music Lovers, and Women in Love are milestones in film history. A true visionary, Russell's work--invariably involving a very liberal treatment of sexuality--has always struggled with censorship and controversy. Although he is remembered for the rock opera Tommy and recently directed an innovative production of Madam Butterfly, Russell started out making drama documentaries on the lives of the great composers for the BBC series Monitor in the late 1950s and early 1960s.
