Tristan and Iseult
'Tristan and Iseult' Summary
In the ancient realm of Cornwall, Tristan, a valiant knight, is sent to Ireland to escort the beautiful Iseult to be the bride of his uncle, King Mark. On their voyage home, they accidentally consume a love potion intended for the newlyweds, and their hearts become irrevocably entwined. Their forbidden love ignites a chain of events that will challenge the bonds of loyalty, honor, and ultimately, life itself. Despite the obstacles that society and fate throw their way, Tristan and Iseult's love endures as an eternal flame, a testament to the power and fragility of the human heart. Through its exploration of illicit passion, courtly intrigue, and the complexities of human nature, Symons's "Tristan and Iseult" remains a timeless and poignant tale of love, loss, and the enduring power of the human spirit.Book Details
