«Parzival» is the adaptation of the medieval legend by Auguste Lechner and Friedrich Stephan, published by Arena Verlag in paperback (272 pages, in German).
Parzival's mother raises him isolated from the chivalric world to protect him, but the young man eventually sets out in search of adventures. With naive daring he obtains the Red Knight's weapons and is knighted; at the Grail castle he fails to ask the compassionate question that would have relieved King Amfortas, and must search within himself to find compassion.
German version revised by Friedrich Stephan, with glossary and published as Arena-Taschenbuch no. 50024; recommended for readers aged 12 and up.
Intended for young readers new to medieval epic who want to discover the Grail legend in an accessible narrative.
