Description
The Mabinogi by Matthew Francis A retelling of the first four stories from the Welsh national epic, The Mabinogi is a poetic exploration of medieval Celtic world. This collection of prose tales weaves together elements of war, enchantment, adventure and romance. Permeating the sequence is a fascination with the power of imagination to transform human experience into works of tragedy, comedy and wonder. Francis's retelling captures the magic and strangeness of this ancient world, where myth and reality blur. A significant contribution to the storytelling of the British Isles, The Mabinogi offers a unique perspective on our shared cultural heritage.
