Yes, it is difficult to find an abridged version of Sir Gawain and the Green Knight! (And there are so many versions out there...and they're mostly under copyright.) I've only seen abridged versions within textbooks, which of course are not cheap. I've had luck by searching for "Sir Gawain pdf" because sometimes you'll find the textbook versions that teachers post on their class websites, like this one: https://heritagecollegeready.org/ourpages/auto/2013/9/30/51224870/SIR%20GAWAIN%20AND%20THE%20GREEN%20KNIGHT%20TEXTBOOK.pdf. Again, copyright can be an issue here, so be careful with reproducing!

Thanks for these tips! I'm wondering if you know where to find an abridged version of the text?
