Yes! This was the first translation I've read and I'm currently reading the translation by Charles W. Kennedy. (I plan on picking up Tolkien's translation after finishing that one.)
Mark Bloomer
My favorite book. I read it every two or three years.

I keep rereading this poem repeatedly. I enjoy, above all, studying its form in the original Anglo-Saxon.

Steven C Hawkins
My favorite story of all times. It is the first superhero story in English literature. (The Greeks and Hebrews beat us by quite a few centuries). I have read it every couple of years since I was in high school. 1976.
