ARTHUR DIES, 1St. CHRONICLE, Vol. 5, By Olchar E. Lindsann

ARTHUR DIES, 1St. CHRONICLE, Vol. 5, By Olchar E. Lindsann

"I am once again staggered at the unique I mean UNIQUE appearance of this absolutely multilayered masterpiece, from its ruminating typographies hand-written maps and scribblings to its simply masterful use of language, orthographic corruption phonetic decay faux archaicisms real archaicisms and just plain philological learning. I love the actual feel you present of that mysterious murky period after the withdrawal of the Romans from Britain to the coming of the Angles and Saxons, and the muttering murmurs of the Celtic indigenous folk ... all too much for the mind to take in at once. I simply have to breathe these pages to realize the enormous modernity in this ver-sion of myth and antiquities. Is this literature or a copy of literature? You have put the torch to anyone who thinks they understand poetry. This is incomprehensible quite simply put, the massive fragment of a Brain part bedlam and part ratio-cination. Seen through a glass darkly and magnified by season of tormented myr-midons trying to deconstruct whatever has ever been read before. Unlike anything in print today. Luna Bisonte Prods has to be praised for putting this massive typographical jigsaw puzzle together!" -from comments made by Iván Argüelles; though comments were made before this 2022 publication of Vol. 5, being the last volume of the First Chronicle of ARTHUR DIES, where Ygraine gives birth to Arthur in Chapter VIII of Vol.5. There are also extensive appendices in Vol.5 which summarize each volume's story line and different characters, or explain medieval terminology used in this epic poem.
