ReplyDeleteI've been meaning to read The Brothers Karamazov too. :)
ReplyDeleteShana - Good! I've read Beowulf so many times I almost named my cat Hrothgar! I joke of course. :) I do have Grendel on my shelf and am looking forward to checking that one out. I always felt sad for Grendel. He had to have been misunderstood. I'm glad someone wrote his story!
