Description:
Winner of England`s 1999 Whitbread prize, Nobel Laureate Seamus Heaney`s translation of the ancient Anglo-Saxon epic is meant to retrieve the poem from its schoolbook purgatory and establish it as a living, powerful poem for contemporary readers. More than the story of a hero`s battle with a gruesome monster, BEOWULF is a story of loyalty, nationalism, and--some say--the dawn of Christianity on what had previously been a violently pagan land.
