Speaking of oral stories and King Arthur I recently had the pleasure of listening to a very recent translation of Sir Gawain and the Green Knight and loved it. The alliteration was absolutely fantastic. I passed it on to my wife and best friend before returning it to the library and they enjoyed it as well. It was Simon Armitage's translation and I think it was read by Bill Wallace. Very, very good! Sounds like a wonderful book.

It sounds wonderful, Ella - exactly your mix of rational surrealism with a dash of wry humour thrown in. Sort of The Mabinogian on a sugar-high from chocolate cake. Yay!
