Idylls of the King

The timeless legend of King Arthur retold in Alfred, Lord Tennyson's scintillating poetry.

Tennyson brings to the page his own unique take on many of the classic Arthurian tales, including Lancelots marriage to Elaine and his affair with Queen Guinevere, and the quest for the Holy Grail. The saga is bookended by the story of Arthur - his ascent to the throne, and the fall of Camelot.
