by Katherine Parker
with Colin Firth as Rupert Brooke and Emma Piper as Ka Cox

The poet Rupert Brooke was born on 3 August 1887, and died of an illness at the tragically early age of 27 during the First World War. One of the most beautiful men in England, he had many admirers, but his emotional life was far from trouble free. While up at Cambridge, he met Ka Cox - a large, ungainly, matronly woman with whom he had a most complex love affair.
