Tolkien Rec: After the Battles by republic
This is difficult to describe. On one level it is a reworking of J. R. R. Tolkien's The Homecoming of Beorhtnoth Beorhthelm’s Son across five AUs, but on another it tries to take Tolkien's own thoughts about war from the end note to the play and dramatise those in the selection of AUs. It is both clever and haunting.
