Part 4 is The Ill-Made Knight and is about Lancelot, starting at the age of 15 and ending when he is in his mid-40's. Whereas Malory had simply recounted events: deeds and tournaments that all the knights took part in, with a factual and listing style, White is telling a story with much humor. He has chosen to leave out much of what Malory included and embellish the most interesting parts. He focuses on relationships, feelings, and personalities as well as adventures. For this reason, he is much more interesting..at least to this reader.
