King Arthur's kingdom is flourishing, but Sir Gawain craves the adventures of days past. He welcomes the challenge of facing down a dragon, but the fight and his own rage can only lead to death.
In the vein of Arthurian classics Sir Gawain and the Green Knight and The Once and Future King, "Sir Gawain and the Dragon" explores Gawain's internal struggles as he attempts to epitomize chivalrous knighthood.
