 Last July, we told you of rumours of a new publication of Tolkien's work, expected May of 2013. There is now confirmation from British publishers Harper Collins that Tolkien's long poem, The Fall of Arthur, will indeed be released next Spring. The text has of course been edited by the Professor's son Christopher, and the publication will also included 'three illuminating essays that explore the literary world of King Arthur, reveal the deeper meaning of the verses and the painstaking work that his father applied to bring it to a finished form, and the intriguing links between The Fall of Arthur and his greatest creation, Middle-earth.'
Exciting stuff; fans everywhere will be eager to read Tolkien's poem on the British legend which was one of his inspirations to create his own mythic saga. Read the details here; thanks to David for sending us the update!
