Bruno. The surname Lawrence seems almost superfluous, but the first name conjures up a whirlwind of memories. Music, touring theatre in New Zealand and Australia, films and television. From the 1950s until his untimely death in 1995 Bruno Lawrence was an enduring popular culture figure on both sides of the Tasman. But Bruno also enjoyed an international reputation, with roles in feature films like Smash Palace, Utu and The Quiet Earth as well as major roles in television programmes such as Frontline (which propelled him to fame in Australia), and several academy awards. Boundless energy, diverse talents, tremendous charm, a strong sense of fairness... these were just some of the qualities that made him so memorable. Yet this is no hagiography, for author Booth also explores Bruno's excesses, his improvidence and minor criminal activities (starting with the theft of a saxophone at age eight, and its redeeming aftermath). This first biography of Bruno Lawrence will delight all who have enjoyed his music and films. Numerous illustrations add visual appeal to an amazing and enchanting story.

The twelfth-century French poet Chrétien de Troyes is a major figure in European literature. His courtly romances fathered the Arthurian tradition and influenced countless other poets in England as well as on the continent. Yet because of the difficulty of capturing his swift-moving style in translation, English-speaking audiences are largely unfamiliar with the pleasures of reading his poems. Now, for the first time, an experienced translator of medieval verse who is himself a poet provides a translation of Chrétien’s major poem, Yvain, in verse that fully and satisfyingly captures the movement, the sense, and the spirit of the Old French original. Yvain is a courtly romance with a moral tenor; it is ironic and sometimes bawdy; the poetry is crisp and vivid. In addition, the psychological and the socio-historical perceptions of the poem are of profound literary and historical importance, for it evokes the emotions and the values of a flourishing, vibrant medieval past.
