JRR Tolkien's translation of the 11th-century poem Beowulf will finally be published this spring, 90 years after the author wrote it.
The author's son, Christopher Tolkien edited the translation of his father's "enter[ing] into the imagined past" of the heroes. Christopher said his JRR -- who also wrote The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit -- "seems never to have considered" publishing the translation.
