"An astonishing achievement. . ." -- Susanna Clarke, author of Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell and Piranesi
"Vigorous and fresh. . . whets the appetite for much more." -- Rowan Williams, former Archbishop of Canterbury
"A rare glimpse at a magnum opus in the making." Daniel Nayeri, author of Everything Sad Is Untrue
In this first volume of Merlin's Isle, join the prophesied youth, Sir Galahad, and the other knights of the quest as they set out from Camelot to achieve the Holy Grail. The accomplishment of their goal will not only heal the wounded Fisher-King, but will bring about the long hoped-for healing of the land itself.
Here at the height of his poetic power, Malcolm Guite delivers a tale of adventure in ballad form that plumbs the depths of the human soul, carries readers through the Wasteland, and sets them upon the numinous shores of Faerie in all its mystery and meaning.
Guite follows in the epic footsteps of Spenser, Milton, Dante, and Tennyson, yet this is not poetry destined solely for the halls of academia--it's a story to be enjoyed by young and old alike, a story to be read aloud among friends and family, a story to be cherished for generations to come.
