Description: Julian Glover Reads BEOWULF (2x AUDIOBOOK Cassette ACTORS CHOICE 1995) Beowulf Read by Julian Glover BEOWULF is a poem, written down in the tenth century, but certainly recited - or told, many hundreds of years before that. It is the oldest written poem of its kind in English. It concerns heroes, monsters, dragons and mystical beasts. BEOWULF was a tale told in the mead halls by the travelling or resident story-teller over several days of drunken revelry. It contained many sub-plots and long accounts of battles and family relationships which delighted contemporary audiences. It also took many hours to recount. For the stage performance and for this recording - I derived my script from several modern English translations, interspersed with lines of Old English to help retain the "feel" of the original. BEOWULF is a rattling good yarn that never fails to stir the hearts and imaginations of all who hear it." JULIAN GLOVER
