      About This Book

      Examines the contemporary retellings of the old Welsh stories and explores the way they treat the deepest and most urgent of all human needs the need to belong. Includes discussion of fantasy novels by authors such as Lloyd Alexander, Madeleine L'Engle, Alan Garner, and Stephen Lawhead. Arthurian literature and films are also reviewed in a discussion of the Celtic notion of the hero and its importance on a personal level for the individual reader.
