Listen to an extract read by Svanur Thorkelsson, an Icelandic poet and performer, The Times
The Times view on Audible’s Beowulf: Epic Recital
The release date of the full Audible recording is March 12.
I wish I'd had this recording when I was an undergraduate.
I made my own recording as a student revising for the final examinations, reading in idiosyncratic (i.e. inaccurate) Anglo-Saxon on a Grundig reel-to-reel tape recorder. I used to play it back when I was falling asleep at night. I thought I might become more familiar with the text by a process of osmosis.
