The Princess Bride

Book • 1973
The Princess Bride is a modern fantasy classic that tells the story of Buttercup, one of the world's most beautiful women, and her farm boy lover Westley.

The narrative is presented as an 'abridgment' of a nonexistent work by 'S.

Morgenstern', allowing Goldman to interject his own commentary and personal anecdotes.

The story involves quests for riches, revenge, power, and true love, featuring memorable characters such as the criminal mastermind Vizzini, the giant Fezzik, and the swordsman Inigo Montoya.

The tale is filled with swashbuckling adventures, daring feats, and a deep exploration of true love and its challenges.
