Publisher's Summary
Written a thousand years ago, this long poem is the very first surviving piece of English literature. Join Beowulf, a young warrior, as he achieves glory by fighting and killing three fantastic monsters. This new translation, by the Nobel laureate poet Seamus Heaney, offers modern listeners an accessible, intensely dramatic text. It amply demonstrates why this epic has spread its influence over more than a millennium of literature.

Great unabridged reading
I chose to listen to this version over the Heaney version and I don’t have any regrets. Even unabridged, this book isn’t that long. The work is a classic of English literature for a reason and listening to the poem rather than reading it really enhances the experience.
