{"product_id":"the-legend-of-the-grail-nigel-bryant-9781843840831","title":"The Legend of the Grail","description":"Constructed from the many and often contradictory Grail legends, here is a single, consistent and accessible narrative for the general reader - now available in paperback. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe Grail legends have been appropriated by novelists as diverse as Umberto Eco and Dan Brown yet very few have read for themselves the original stories from which they came. All the mystery and drama of the Arthurian world are embodied in the extraordinary tales of Perceval, Gawain, Lancelot and Galahad in pursuit of the Holy Grail. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e The original romances, full of bewildering contradictions and composed by a number of different writers, dazzle with the sheer wealth of their conflicting imagination. In Nigel Bryant's hands, this enthralling material becomes truly accessible. He has constructed a single, consistent version of the Grail story in modern English which reasserts its relevance as one of the great and enduring works of literature. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e NIGEL BRYANT's previous Arthurian books include The High Book of the Grail (Perlesvaus), Chretien de Troyes' Perceval and its Continuations, and Robert de Boron's Merlin and the Grail.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Nigel Bryant\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1843840839\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781843840831\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Boydell \u0026amp; Brewer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/18\/2006\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 272\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.65lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.76h x 5.10w x 0.80d","brand":"Nigel Bryant","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43938923282687,"sku":"9781843840831","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_ba79f32e-db62-4c40-9364-21960ac62084.jpg?v=1681438475","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-legend-of-the-grail-nigel-bryant-9781843840831","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
