Sinopsis:

Set in 1820 London, landscape artist William Daniell hires Jesse Cloud, a homeless teenager, to be his apprentice. But all is not as it seems. Both William and his prentice must make their own inner journeys to expose others' betrayals and explore their own possibilities. Faced with bankruptcy, starvation looms. Friendships fragment. The artist must learn how to see and his prentice must learn how to survive - while the truth shatters all.

Acerca del autor: Ray Rumsby, during a career in education wrote several articles for academic journals and his work for a national charity led to a PhD. In 2013 Ray began a campaign to rescue a local bookshop scheduled for closure. A group of volunteers formed a new, not-for-profit community bookshop, and Ketts Books has evolved successfully ever since. A professional theatre company toured Suffolk and Norfolk in 2016 with Rays play about the life and work of George Crabbe. Crabbe's 1810 poem Peter Grimes tells the tragic story of three apprentices farmed out from a London workhouse. This led to the creation of Jesse Cloud, a homeless teenager fleeing the workhouse and one of the central characters of The Prentice-Boy.
