Customer Reviews

Grail of Hearts makes sense out of old legend.

I know that his book has not received rave reviews, even amongst Arthurian readers, however, I found it to provide a very good understanding of the Parsifal legend. After reading Richard Monaco's books and trying to understand the older texts, I had pretty much written off ever getting into Parsifal, Kundry and Klingsor, but Ms. Shwartz's book was a fresh re-telling and in my opinion it is one of the must reads of Arthurian literature
