      Synopsis

      This immortal tale from the Age of Chivalry concerns the doomed love between Tristan, a Cornish knight, and Iseult, an Irish princess. An enduring theme in Western art, literature, and music, Tristan and Iseult's tragic romance was most famously interpreted by Richard Wagner in his popular opera. This edition features J. Bédier's seamless weaving of many medieval sources into a captivating narrative, complemented by Hillaire Belloc's eloquent translation.

      January 22, 2006: This is the most romantic story ever written. i strongly recommend reading this book over the new movie that just came out, it is nothing compared to this story.

      September 08, 2004: You definately must be a fan of arthurian literature to enjoy this book. Althought it is short and easy to read, i did not enjoy it at all. I found the wording and the basic concept frustrating and I would not recommend this book to anyone not already interested. However, if the book seems interesting to you I would say its worth a try.
