A review by troystory
Beowulf by Anonymous
3.0
The poem itself was pretty good, and written in a very easy-to-read way (I think I read the entire thing in like an hour), but the introduction itself just confused things for me so... I did like this, overall, but I didn't quite connect with it the way I have with other epics. Also, I thought the side-by-side bilingual versions were a really interesting way to present the poem, and it was pretty fun to go back and forth and try to identify certain words or parts in the Old English original.
