The Mists Of Avalon

The Mists of Avalon, Marion Zimmer Bradley's novel, tells the King Arthur myth from a feminist point of view. The book tells the story from Morgaine's (in the old sources often called Morgan Le Fay) viewpoint, following her life instead of Arthur's thus removing the negative stigma attached to her character. In the book Bradley depicts Morgaine as a woman fighting for Celtic culture in a country where Christianity threatens to destroy it. Arthur, in her novel, is a weak king, unable to resist the ideas of his Christian wife Guinevere. The novel was a best-seller upon its publication in the early 1980s and has remained popular to this day.
   
Marion Zimmer Bradley later expanded the book into a series.

Miniseries

The book was adapted in 2001 by American cable channel TNT into a miniseries directed by Uli Edel.
