Quote "Emma commissioned both me and Carl (Grose) for Tristan and Yseult..."

Emma commissioned both me and Carl (Grose) for Tristan and Yseult, writing a series of poems and dialogues, rather than a full script. She said, “Anna, I want you to write the voice of the unloved and the tragic lovers and Carl the voice of the court”, which was in iambic pentameter. I wrote for the Love Spotters and Whitehands and Brangian, and Carl wrote King Mark and Frocin. Sometimes we overlapped. My references for that included a lot of film references that Emma had, but there was also the scandal about Monica Lewinsky and Bill Clinton happening, so I wrote about the corridors of power.
