Synopsis
Tales told through the ages of quests and curses, enduring love and immeasurable tragedy "The power of Tolkien's central characters--tragic, cursed T rin; the lovers Beren and L thien--shines through."-- Library Journal Gathering together two of the most crucial stories in Tolkien's world--those of Turin, a hero living under a ruinous family curse, and Luthien, an elven princess whose love for a mortal man is mirrored ages later in Arwen and Aragorn-- The Lays of Beleriand sheds light on the creation of the mythology of Middle-earth. Journey through darkness with Turin Turambar as he searches for his long-missing father in The Lay of the Children of Hurin, and join Beren and Luthien on their quest to cut a Silmaril from Morgoth's crown in The Lay of Leithian . Both narratives appear here in alliterative verse and are accompanied by Christopher Tolkien's commentary on the evolution of the history of the Elder Days. Also included is critical analysis by C. S. Lewis of The Lay of Leithian., "The power of Tolkien's central characters--tragic, cursed T rin; the lovers Beren and L thien--shines through."-- Library Journal Enter these pages and learn of the hero of The Lay of Leithian --and hear of the early years of T rin the Tall, as he journeys through darkness on his search to find his father.

    The textbook was better than described. It looks like brand new! The price was appropriate for the type of textbook that it is. The appearance and quality of the textbook was impeccable. The shipping took about 2 weeks to arrive, but the textbook was well worth the wait. Seller packaged my textbook beautifully which ensured that it arrived unharmed and in perfect condition. Excellent seller! I would purchase more items from this seller in the future!
