Book Description
Celebrated children's writer Hans Christian Andersen arrives, unannounced, for a stay at Gad's Hill Place in the Kent marshes - home to Charles Dickens and his large, charismatic family. To the lonely and eccentric guest, the members of Dickens' household seem to live a life of unreachable bliss. But with his broken English, Andersen doesn't at first see the storms brewing within the family: undeclared passions, a son about to go to India, and a growing strangeness at the heart of Dickens' marriage. Andersen's English by Sebastian Barry premiered at the Theatre Royal, Bury, in February 2010 in a production by Out of Joint.

Book Description
Rage Against The LightPlace: Sydney CBD. Or a city anywhere. Time: Mostly daytime yet feels like night.Era: Early 21st century. Mood: Dark but hopeful.Light: Dramatic. Sydney is a city in the midst of a development boom. Skyscrapers. Cranes. Man-made environment. Concrete. Few trees. Mirrored surfaces. Windows magnifying light. Consumer advertising expressing people's desires. Impersonal at heart.There are signs of life amid the cold abstractions of architecture. People scurry about being literally exposed by light. They are struck by shafts between buildings like insects coming out for food. Solitary male figures appear as different identities. A man in a suit, dragging on a cigarette is lost in thought.Street photography is a genre with a long history (Garry Winogrand, Daido Moriyama, Trent Parke). The CBD is a favorite haunt. Some photographers seek out people or emphasize a sense of isolation in the crowd. Others evoke a haunting mood empty of human presence. Markus Andersen does both, loving the tradition of black and white (high contrast), square format and abstraction. With very deliberate cropping and enterprising juxtapositions he reveals his skill for graphic design. He aligns the elements of people and place to make a wryly humourous visual haiku. The Leunig of photography.Markus Andersen's photographs describe an experience familiar to us. It is exciting and full of promise to go to the CBD and yet it can leave us feeling empty. We go home only temporarily satiated. This essay is rich with worldly wisdom. There is satisfaction in the vision shared. It celebrates the humanity of the self and its endless creative ability to interpret. This is the role of the artist. It casts light on our experience by speaking from the heart. Markus Anderson sheds light on our love of life and our love of light.

Book Description
An old street lamp is at the end of its working life. It has had a long life and lots of people know it. So, friends come to visit on its last night on the job. Hans Christian Andersen (1805-1875) was a Danish author, poet and artist. Celebrated for children’s literature, his most cherished fairy tales include "The Emperor's New Clothes", "The Little Mermaid", "The Nightingale", "The Steadfast Tin Soldier", "The Snow Queen", "The Ugly Duckling" and "The Little Match Girl". His books have been translated into every living language, and today there is no child or adult that has not met Andersen's whimsical characters. His fairy tales have been adapted to stage and screen countless times, most notably by Disney with the animated films "The Little Mermaid" in 1989 and "Frozen", which is loosely based on "The Snow Queen", in 2013. Thanks to Andersen's contribution to children's literature, his birth date, April 2, is celebrated as International Children's Book Day.

Book Description
Rarely does an American or European child grow up without an introduction to Hans Christian Andersen’s "The Ugly Duckling," "The Princess and the Pea," or "Thumbelina." Andersen began publishing his fairy tales in 1835, and they brought him almost immediate acclaim among Danish and German readers, followed quickly by the French, Swedes, Swiss, Norwegians, British, and Americans. Ultimately he wrote more than 150 tales. And yet, Paul Binding contends in this incisive book, Andersen cannot be confined to the category of writings for children. His work stands at the very heart of mainstream European literature. The author considers the entire scope of Andersen’s prose, from his juvenilia to his very last story. He shows that Andersen’s numerous novels, travelogues, autobiographies, and even his fairy tales (notably addressed not to children but to adults) earned a vast audience because they distilled the satisfactions, tensions, hopes, and fears of Europeans as their continent emerged from the Napoleonic Wars. The book sheds new light on Andersen as an intellectual, his rise to international stardom, and his connections with other eminent European writers. It also pays tribute to Andersen’s enlightened values—values that ensure the continuing appeal of his works.

Book Description
Many years ago, there was an Emperor, who was so excessively fond of new clothes, that he spent all his money in dress. He did not trouble himself in the least about his soldiers; nor did he care to go either to the theatre or the chase, except for the opportunities then afforded him for displaying his new clothes. He had a different suit for each hour of the day; and as of any other king or emperor, one is accustomed to say, he is sitting in council, it was always said of him, The Emperor is sitting in his wardrobe
