520    World renowned critic John Gardner has received 
       prestigious awards for his wide range of literary 
       achievements including short stories, novels, and essays. 
       When he turns his talents to retelling Beowulf, the 
       earliest epic in British literature, the result is a work 
       that combines extensive knowledge with a marvelous strain 
       of pure fun. In Gardner's version of the epic, instead of 
       lauding the helmeted hero, Beowulf, the spotlight shines 
       on Grendel, a beast whose grotesque body and blood thirst 
       condemn him to the life of an outlaw. Grendel is a 
       horrible monster. He greedily gobbles up warriors in the 
       Danish mead hall guarded by Beowulf. But within Grendel 
       lurks a soul that delights in dark humor, dramatic 
       pirouettes and pranks. Both young adult and adult 
       listeners will revel in this powerful complement to a 
       classic tale. George Guidall's narration captures a 
       surreal landscape that shimmers on the other side of the 
       original epic's heroic mirror. What we see is that there's
       a little bit of Grendel living is each of us. Also 
       available: Beowulf
