Author Description

David Kaye tells the tale of Anonymous, the legendary Sixteenth Century composer, on his various journeys around Europe including encounters with Henry Viii and the Spanish Inquisition as well as a number of comely wenches with heaving bosoms. Anonymous travelled along dusty roads to small villages, large towns, and forbidding castles in search of fame and fortune but instead found an array of wicked noblemen, mischievous monks, saucy serving girls, jealous lovers, and narrow minded music critics. This light-hearted account of his adventures paints a portrait in words of this most elusive figure from a colourful and often bawdy era.
