Description
To the heroes of "Beowulf", the monster Grendel, devourer of men, represented chaos and death and pagan darkness. This is Grendel's side of the story...Grendel perceives that what the primeval dragon has told him is true; he is the brute existent by which men learn to define themselves. "Grendel" may be read for what it says about the human condition, for its implicit comments on men's art, wars, fears, and hopes.
