by Alfred Lord Tennyson (Author)
A sweeping poetic cycle retelling the rise and fall of King Arthur's realm, this volume explores timeless themes through richly imagined verse. Each idyll examines a different episode of the myth, from heroic quests to tragic downfalls, all filtered through a Victorian moral lens. At once romantic and elegiac, it is a powerful meditation on the tension between noble ideals and flawed humanity.
