Overview
Of all the old English stories, the tale of Gawain and the Green Knight has remained one of the most popular ever told; dozens of movies and books have used Gawain as inspiration. It's one of the most important books in the English language. If it's so great, why is it so hard to understand! BookCaps helps with this modern retelling of Gawain.
If you have struggled in the past reading old English, then BookCaps can help you out.
The original text is also presented in the book, along with a comparable version of both text.
