Early morning musings
Jul. 19th, 2004 06:32 amI wish Shakespeare had done something Arthurian. That would have been wicked.
I burnt out on it early on. Basics by Bullfinch, and between Mary Stewart, Gillian Bradshaw and Marion Zimmer Bradley, I'd read all the good stuff early on. The rest? Eh - at its root, it's a tragedy. I don't do tragedy. Plus, Guinevere has bugged the ever-loving shit out of me from the beginning.
But, as Chris pointed out, I should really be more annoyed at Lancelot. Stupid French minstrels.
