About the book

The other great book by the man responsible for the English dictionary - a beautiful, engaging and ultimately inspiring story of a royal brother and sister who escape the castle and, travelling in disguise, embark on a quest to discover how they can be more useful to society. Their adventure leads them amongst poor people and rich men, great intellectuals, merchants, holy men and ruthless warriors. Sublime, wise and moving, this epic, sprawling tale is one of Johnson's finest works.
