The Fall of Arthur by Christopher Tolkien, J.R.R. Tolkien

4.0

The Fall of Arthur is a beautiful alliterative poem, that shows how beautiful and expressive the English language can be (especially if it is not constrained by a fixed word order and modern word). The poem itself is unfortunately unfinished after the first five cantos (~50 pages), the rest of the book is notes by Christopher Tolkien, at times a bit boring, but personal and scholarly - it must be strange for Christopher to spend his life analyzing every scrap of paper his father left behind trying to make sense of it.
