Thematically, there is a rich orchestration of the contrasts between age and youth, corruption and innocence, decline and regeneration. Both Leontes' murderous jealousy and Perdita's love-relationship with Florizel are eloquently intense. In the theatre, \u0026lt;em\u0026gt;The Winter's Tale\u0026lt;\/em\u0026gt; often proves to be diversely entertaining and deeply moving.\u0026lt;\/p\u0026gt;\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePaperback \/ softback | 160 pages | Published January 1995\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"GARDNERS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":63967040930141,"sku":"9781853262357","price":6.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0978\/3459\/8749\/files\/9781853262357.jpg?v=1774351867","url":"https:\/\/www.thebookmark.ie\/products\/the-winters-tale","provider":"The Bookmark ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
