Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. The King Arthur-Lancelot-Guinevere legend is known, and so re-tellings of it tend to amplify its magnitude for dramatic appeal or provide as-yet-unknown details that flesh out new terrain. But the charm of the legend is that there are conflicting accounts, stories in multiple languages that over hundreds of years have become authentic and primary in themselves. This is where Guinevere and Lancelot fit in. The characters are here, the ones we expect, like King Arthur, Guinevere, Lancelot, Merlin, Gawain, Perceval, as are the adventures, like kidnapping, swordplay, and romantic intrigue. But unlike other stories, we have in Guinevere and Lancelot a departure into landscapes, psychology, and dialogue worthy of the legend. We get real anxiety, complacency, vanity, desperation. King Arthur sees his fate, knows he is helpless against it, and so seeks to erase his fate by accelerating through it. Lancelot's dynamism comes from how casual he is, how complacent, as he seems comfortable with being pinned down by his duty. And Guinevere, who finally gets proper attention, is not just a trophy to be won, but takes charge of her own destiny, finally.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Pushing out the boundaries of the Camelot legend, King Arthur, Out of Camelot is a collection of stories that expands the exploits of the Knights of the Round Table. The first story, "King Arthur and the Battle of Mount Badon" establishes Arthur's legitimacy. We see him remove the sword from the stone, as we expect, but we get insight into his psychology, his prowess as a young knight, and why his mind, more than anything else, proves decisive in capturing the throne of Camelot. The second, "Lancelot and the Gray Knight," surrounds the familiar Lady of Shallott, using the original names, with a new adventure that combines wits and daring to a surprising end. Finally, "The Giant of Mont Saint-Michel" takes Arthur to France to battle a giant that has taken prisoner a princess on the island's medieval abbey. Only, the entanglements of motivation and human frailty leave Arthur questioning the purpose of the whole endeavor. This item is printed on demand.
