While re-reading this book for book club (>30 years after the fall of the USSR), I am appalled that I do not know which side our current president would support in a similar situation. Scary & sad.

The Arthurian Saga by Mary Stewart
A most magical retelling of the court of Camelot. When I first read it, I only knew it as a trilogy and later discovered The Wicked Day; The Prince and the Pilgrim hardly seems to belong.
