'Albion awake!' is John Kruse's second fairy tale for adults. It follows the enchanted adventures of John Bullen as he travels in time and space, meeting inspirational figures from England's past and devising a plan to save present day Albion from its plight. The island is sick, damaged by pollution and poverty, and the fairy queen, Maeve, recruits John to save it. With the help and inspiration of poet William Blake and other social dreamers and revolutionaries, John accepts and sets about his task. The story weaves together many themes- William Blake's poetry, fairy-lore, radical and environmental politics, archaeology and history, tragedy and romance, religion and legend, benefits and housing policy- to create a compelling call to think and act differently in order to save Britain and to save the planet.
