About This Item
Signed by Author Very Good First Edition Hardcover in boards with gilt lettering on spine. Unclipped DJ. Tight binding Unmarked text. Illustrated Novel with illustrations by Andrea Offermann. Eager for glory and heedless of others, Sir Yvain sets out from King Arthurs court and defeats a local lord in battle, unknowingly intertwining his future with the lives of two compelling women: Lady Laudine, the beautiful widow of the fallen lord, and her sly maid Lunette. In a stunning visual interpretation of a 12th century epic poem by Chrétien de Troyes, readers are at first glance transported into a classic Arthurian romance complete with errant knights, plundering giants, and fire-breathing dragons. A closer look, however, reveals a world rich with unspoken emotion. Striking, evocative art by Andrea Offermann sheds light upon the inner lives of medieval women and the consequences Yvains oblivious actions have upon Laudine and Lunette.
