In the title story, a knight living alone in his isolated mountain fortress shows hospitality toward two pilgrims who appear from the mountains seeking shelter. Entreated to tell them of his sorrow, the knight unburdens himself and relates a tragic tale of love and loss. Resigned to the bitter fate that life has dealt him, the knight is unaware of the true nature of the two young people's pilgrimage, until a revelation transforms his understanding of his past and reveals the possibility of a new future. Four other short stories by Shelley are also included: 'The Dream,' 'The False Rhyme,' 'The Invisible Girl,' and 'The Mourner.'
Novelist and short-story writer Mary Wollstonecraft Shelley (1797-1851) is best remembered for 'Frankenstein, or The Modern Prometheus'.
