"The Forest Lovers" by Maurice Hewlett is a romance novel written during the early 20th century. Set in a medieval backdrop, the narrative follows the adventures of Prosper le Gai, a spirited young man who embarks on a journey into the mysterious Morgraunt Forest. This romantic tale explores themes of love, honor, and the intertwining of destiny as Prosper encounters a series of challenges and intriguing characters, including the enigmatic maiden Isoult
la Desirous. At the start of the novel, Prosper le Gai is cast out by his brother and sets off into the wilderness, filled with youthful exuberance and a thirst for adventure. He journeys through the countryside, encountering various perils, including bandits he easily bests. As he enters Morgraunt Forest, he stumbles upon a scene where a lady struggles to drag a dead knight to his grave. This encounter sets the stage for deeper entanglements as Prosper becomes ensnared in the impending dangers of the forest, meeting characters such as the cunning Dom Galors and the captivating Isoult. The opening chapters focus on building Prosper's character as a brave and whimsical youth while hinting at Isoult's precarious position and her connection to the darker elements of their world, setting up a narrative rich with intrigue and romantic tension.
