Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is a parody of Sir Walter Scott's 'The Lay of the Last Minstrel' and draws on the popularity of the Romantic era in the early 19th century. The author uses the ballad format to tell a humorous tale of a poor, down-on-his-luck fiddler who gets involved in a series of misadventures, including a fight with a knight, a spell cast by a monk, and a love affair with a lady of the castle. Along the way, the fiddler encounters a cast of colorful characters, including a talking dog, a mischievous dwarf, and a giant pig. The author's use of humor and satire pokes fun at the conventions of the Romantic era and provides a light-hearted and entertaining read for fans of classic literature.
