The Bard That Sang Tears

A haunting parable about a kingdom that silences truth in the name of democracy and the lone bard who dares to resist.The King of Oceania claims to defend democracy by outlawing independent voices. His Council of Five divides the people and his Bards chant the same words across the land: Other-Speak is extremely dangerous to democracy. But one bard--Victor--dares to sing another song. His defiance sets him against laws threats and death itself. The Bard Who Sang Tears is a timeless allegory for those who believe free speech is not a danger to democracy but its very foundation.
