Pearl - Borroff, Marie

Pearl by Borroff, Marie

Format: Trade Paperback

Published by W. W. Norton, 1977

Pearl is one of the great medieval religious poems -- an elegy, deeply moving in human terms; an allegory; and a narrative of enlightenment and, ultimately, of consolation. It is now, at last, made accessible to the modern reader in a new translation by the distinguished scholar Marie Borroff, whose verse translation of the great Arthurian romans, Sir Gawain and the Green Knight, has already become an established classic.
