Beowulf is lit. 💯

Beowulf Sample. I wanted to read a sample of Healey’s translation. BUT the sample reading was 37 pages of the introduction. I never got a chance to actually read the text.

Good modern translation. Very easy to digest I loved it 😍😍😍

Where's the "bilingual" part?. It's touted as a "bilingual" edition. It isn't. The sample only shows the introduction. If you're looking for the Old English like in the print edition, it isn't here. Disappointing and false advertising.

Great text, worthless copy. This E-book is worthless. It lost track of my place every time I closed it once I got the the English translation. I had to highlight a word to keep track. When I had about 50 pages left, it thought the book was complete and popped up adds for other books every few page flips. Maddening.

Good epic tone and wording. Much better than the modern translation. This older translation provides a sense that you vividly experienced a hero’s life, where as modern translation is just like looking through bird view.

Unrealistic. I personally believe that the story is unrealistic and that Beowulf wouldn’t have beat a real life dragon.

Beautiful. The sheer awesomeness that an unknown author can weave into this awe inspiring epic is sheer genius! I know that their is an author listed but he is actually only the translator. The author is unknown! It's too bad because I wish I knew who to thank for this incredible piece of art! I normally put up a wall when a story grows sad so I don't cry! But alas I sat in european literature class and cried my eyes out! Mascara ran down my face when the book drew to an end! It was beautifully done to a point where when it grew sad I didn't want to throw the book away! In would tell you why I was crying but I wish not to spoil the ending for all you currently reading or soon to read.

They have fixed the missing Old English part. This is awesome! I couldn't get through the version in my textbook, and this one made me read it for fun.:) By the way, this book does now include the old English.

Terrible. Terrible

I hate books, this is my one exception. Loved it, I hate books, I want to punch myself in the face right now, but I loved it

Simply great. Seamus Heaney did an excellent job! I love this Epic Poem... Definitely recommend it! I love it!
