About This Book
"This retelling of the medieval Grail legend presents a unified version of the hero Perceval's quest. Illustrated with 34 miniatures from 13th- and 14th-century manuscripts, it offers a concise and coherent version of a myth that has fascinated readers for more than 800 years.".
"The authors have created a "new" romance true to Chretien de Troyes' delicate blend of Christian themes and Celtic magic, offering a conclusion in keeping with Chretien's balanced view of human aspirations. Illustrating key moments in the story, the miniatures help create the elusive atmosphere of medieval fantasy."--BOOK JACKET.
