SI7YBLN3 Ian Seraillier does a masterful job of translating the poetry of Gawain into language that gives a feel of its original rhythms without actually copying the forms of alliterative verse used by the Pearl poet. The illustrations by Victor Ambrus are rough and furry in appearance (like the Green Knight) and lend an appropriate air of menace to the story. This is probably the best adaptation of the story for younger (that is, younger than university age) readers and older readers who want a quick read or accessible introduction would enjoy it too. no reviews | add a review
