Pearl

by Simon Armitage - £7.99  Faber & Faber (2017)
paperback    ISBN 13: 9780571302970 | ISBN 10: 0571302971

Pearl is an entrancing allegorical tale of grief and lost love, as the narrator is led on a Dantean journey through sorrow to redemption by his vanished beloved.
 
Retaining all the alliterative music of the original, a Middle English poem thought to be by the same anonymous author responsible for Sir Gawain and the Green Knight, Pearl is here brought to vivid and intricate life in the care of one of the finest poets writing today.
