A mysterious knight all in green arrives at King Arthur's court and issues a bizarre challenge. Gawain answers the knight - but at what cost? This new translation keeps all the poetic power of the original's extraordinary alliteration. In doing so it brings the saga to life, and in a manner that demands to be heard. One of the greatest stories of English literature from any period, 'Sir Gawain and the Green Knight' is a medieval combination of the epic and the uncanny.
