Reading Notes: Beowulf Part B

Reading Notes: Beowulf Part B

Part B of Beowulf has the epic battle with Grendel. The detail of all of the fights is so well done that you can close your eyes and feel like you are there. Part B is more action and can grab your attention quick. For this story to be told from a poem, Pitz makes it more appealing to a broader audience.
