The ladies of the lake

Book Review   by:david rose     Original Author: Marion Zimmer Bradley
ª
This abstract was translated from Les Dames du lac
 
An enthusiastic and imaginative author revisits the legend of the King Arthur and Knights of the Round Table.If
Merlin, Arthur, Excalibur, Lancelot and his valiant companions are
present, these are the women who manage; Viviane, Ygerne, Genevieve,
Morgan…This novel links the fight of two irreconcilable worlds,
those of the druids and ancient beliefs defending a lost paradise and
those of the new Christian religion orchestred by secretarial monks.
This is more than just a novel, this is a way of living free from
ordinary human constraints and being tinted of fairies.The story
begins with Morgan usually described as the mortal enemy where we
discover her as a human person even if she is lightly blood of the
fairies, submitted to the constraints of her time as in the tragedies
where the fatality is no matter what one does.
