Description
The Dame Ragnell
“What does a woman desire most?” asks a knight of King Arthur. If Arthur does not answer correctly in a year’s time, he will die. The desperate king turns to Sir Gawain, the handsomest of the Knights of the Round Table, to help him find the elusive answer. It turns out only the Dame Ragnell, a woman hideous beyond belief, knows the answer. Her price: Gawain must marry her. And in this moving tale of loyalty, love and appearances, he does.
The Crane Wife
A lonely sail maker rescues a white crane in a storm and sets her free. Soon after, a mysterious young woman arrives at his door and moves in, becoming his wife. To lift them from poverty, she begins to weave magic sails behind a screen, telling him never to look at her as she works. At first he complies, but when greed replaces love, all is lost.
