Author Description

The journal of Mark Thomas, son of a mercantile elder in C14th century Wales: a week in his life for him to decide. Will he wed the beguiling Magge of heroic Brythonic descent, or choose monasticism and scholarship in England? What effect will the arrival of the Gawain Poet have when he comes to their town? How is the narrator's tale matched by the mysterious tale of the Green Maiden? Sir Gawain and the Green Maiden includes the remainder of Gawain's story after the events of the Green Knight, as told in the style of the original and translated into modern English.
