Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. A wheel of ravens revelled loudlyOver a bitter battle of bold fightersWho lost their lives and lay in mud, A feast of flesh for the frenzied birds.From Adam Bolivar, balladeer extraordinaire and author of The Ettinfell of Beacon Hill, comes a landmark volume of poetry that harkens back to the adventurous myths of the Anglo-Saxons and the Dark Ages.Alliterative verse was the traditional poetic form used in Old English poems such as Beowulf and The Wanderer, as well as in Old Norse sagas and the Poetic Edda of the Icelanders. Outlawed by the Normans as a symbol of nativist rebellion after their conquest of England in the year 1066, this ancient form is now all but forgotten. A Wheel of Ravens is the first ever collection of original verse written in the Old English alliterative style. Braiding together threads of early English paganism, folkloric elements-including a speculative pre-history of the storytelling tradition of Jack Tales-and the dream-cycle of H. P. Lovecraft, Adam Bolivar offers an intricate poetic tapestry bursting with myth and story, as unique as it is remarkable.This groundbreaking work will surely be of great interest to fans of Seamus Heaney's Beowulf: A New Verse Translation. With a foreword by Dennis Wilson Wise (a noted authority on Tolkien and epic fantasy), an introduction by the author, and a useful glossary. Richly illustrated with images of Anglo-Saxon artifacts, artwork and more. A Wheel of Ravens is the first ever collection of original verse written in the Old English alliterative style (as Beowulf was). Foreword by Dennis Wilson Wise. Richly illustrated with images of Anglo-Saxon artifacts. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. Seller Inventory # 9781956702101
