From Espresso: Today “The Story of Kullervo”, an unfinished novel written by J.R.R. Tolkien when he was an undergraduate at Oxford University, will be published in Britain. Based on “The Kalevala”, a Finnish epic poem, it had previously only been published in an academic journal. Now the work, which Tolkien described as the “germ” of his later books, will have a far wider audience. It is the latest example of publishers’ enthusiasm for releasing early works by much-loved authors http://econ.st/1MWtDN5
