The kingdom used to be a place of paved roads and well-filled coffers, with joy and the good life all around. But the old king went the way of all flesh years ago, and now the kingdom is derelict, a land of wickedness and ruin. Until the young prince and his sister begin to see what must be done, and - if they can - to restore what has been lost.

For a hundred years A Tale Without a Name has been one of Greece's best-loved stories, combining the timeless rhythms of a fairy tale with a satirical account of a state fallen into chaos. This playful, wise fable is enchanting for readers of any age, as meaningful and moving now as when it was first written.

Penelope S. Delta (1874-1941) was born in Alexandria, Egypt to Greek parents. Delta belonged to the Greek aristocracy and could easily have come out of a novel by E.M. Forster, Marcel Proust or Henry James. She wrote several children’s books, memoirs and historical works. She took her own life in April 1941, the day the Nazis entered Athens.
