Beren and Lúthien by J.R.R. Tolkien
4.0

One of the most beautiful love stories in literature, and Chris Tolkien takes us through the various stages and forms this story took in his father’s imaginings. There is the poetic version of the Lay of Leithian, and also early versions involving demonic cats, Beren as a Gnome and not a Man, and different stories around what happened to the silmaril-crossed lovers at and after death. Wonderful stuff.
