The WORST Hero | Of Turin Turumbar, Part 1 | #30
The tale of Túrin Turambar is one of the great stories of Middle-earth -- Tolkien even mentions it in 1951 as a possible publication after finishing Lord of the Rings. But it's COMPLETELY different... Túrin isn't really a hero--he makes bad decisions and runs from them. He refuses forgiveness. He ignores wise advice.
Join Jonathan, Michael, and Dan as they discuss this tragic counterpoint to Beren and Luthién--a tale of woe, sorrow, grief, death, and not much of a happy ending.
Don't forget to join us in our extended episode where we discuss why this is Jonathan's favorite (non-LOTR) Tolkien story too!
