1982ref. 28395New York:: Knopf 1982. First Printing of the First US Edition. A Fine tight copy in a Fine unclipped dust jacket. In The Mists of Avalon the Bradley relates the Arthurian legends from the perspective of the female characters. The book follows the trajectory of Morgaine Morgan le Fay a priestess fighting to save her Celtic religion in a country where Christianity threatens to destroy the pagan way of life. The epic is focused on the lives of Morgaine Gwenhwyfar Guinevere Viviane Morgause Igraine and other women of the Arthurian legend. The Mists of Avalon is in stark contrast to most other retellings of the Arthurian tales which consistently cast Morgan le Fay as a distant one-dimensional evil sorceress with little or no explanation given for her antagonism to the Round Table. In this case Morgaine is presented as a woman with unique gifts and responsibilities at a time of enormous political and spiritual upheaval who is called upon to defend her indigenous heritage against impossible odds.
