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. Acclaimed poet Malcolm Guite's masterwork, a lifetime in the makingIllustrated by award-winning artist Stephen CrottsForeword by Hugo Award-winning author Susanna ClarkeMore than 25 full-page illustrationsColor interior with unique illuminated capitalsClothbound hardcover with dust jacketAccessible for all agesA true, new epic of English Literature 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.
