While it is more than six centuries old, this magisterial new translation has finally given American readers the ability to experience the splendor and poignancy of the original. Echoing the lyrical passion that so distinguished Seamus Heaneys Beowulf, Simon Armitage has produced a virtuosic translation of a timeless masterpiece, one that follows Arthurs bloody conquests across Europe, all the way to his spectacular and even bloodier downfall. This unparalleled presentation of the greatest Arthurian tale promises to become the definitive edition for generations to come.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51855779496224,"sku":"NEW0393343537","price":22.32,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/714N4b2GMLL.jpg?v=1781541298","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/the-death-of-king-arthur-a-new-verse-translation-0393343537","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
