In the months before the First World War, Richard Herncastle joins his Uncles illusionist act on the Music Hall stage where n he comes into contact with larger than life, garish and outrageous characters. Both funny and sad, Lost Empires tells of a young mans awakening to the world of love and sex, and is also a richly coloured portrait of a dying world of theatre and of lives and a society that the Great War would soon change irrevocably. n Received with rave reviews when first published in 1965, this Priestley classic was later made into a major television series n starring Colin Firth. n Priestley delivers a captivating and authentic snapshot of a fascinating period in theatre history whilst creating a social drama with believable and absorbing characterisation. n
