About Pearl and Sir Orfeo
Step into the mystical realm of medieval lore with Pearl and Sir Orfeo, translated into modern verse by the legendary J. R. R. Tolkien. Pearl presents an elegiac dream-vision exploring profound themes of grief, faith, and consolation as a bereaved father grapples with the loss of his beloved child, guided through radiant allegorical landscapes of transcendent grace. Complementing this spiritual journey, Sir Orfeo transforms the classical Orpheus myth into a captivating Breton lai filled with faerie enchantment, courtly love, and heroic devotion. Preserving the metrical brilliance of the original Middle English verse, this evocative volume stands as an essential treasure for lovers of myth, poetry, and timeless fantasy.
