French Mediaeval Romances from the Lays of Marie de France by Marie

"French Mediaeval Romances from the Lays of Marie de France" by Marie is a collection of narrative poems written during the 12th century. Among these Breton lais is "Guigemar," the tale of a knight cursed to feel no romantic love until a mysterious wound changes his fate. When a magical ship carries him to an imprisoned lady, their forbidden passion ignites. But separation tears them apart, leaving each with a knotted token only their true love can untie. Years later, destiny offers one final chance at reunion. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
