Influenced by the visionary imagination of William Blake and the
characters he created in The Four Zoas and Jerusalem, The Liberation
of Albion is both a theogony, creation myth and tale of spiritual
development. An epic poem that both engages with the past and exists
firmly within modernity, the story follows the grand-man Albion and
the grand-woman Jerusalem, as their lives are touched by fate and they
find themselves embroiled in the desires and whims of the gods. When
Albion is chained, bound, and laid low, Jerusalem is left to face the
world alone. The Liberation of Albion seeks to reignite the
imagination of modernity and reveal once more the intricate links
between narrative, meaning, truth and beauty.
