The legendary battle between the young hero, Beowulf, and the monster, Grendel, now repackaged with a beautifully designed jacket by noted illustrator Malika Favre.
Composed toward the end of the first millennium,
Beowulf is the elegiac narrative of the adventures of Beowulf, a Scandinavian hero who saves the Danes from the seemingly invincible monster Grendel and, later, from Grendel's mother. He then returns to his own country and dies in old age in a vivid fight against a dragon. The poem is about encountering the monstrous, defeating it, and then having to live on in the exhausted aftermath.
