In Britain's land beyond the seas
The wind blows ever through the trees;
in Britain's land beyond the waves
are stony shores and stony caves.

So begins The Lay of Aotrou and Itroun, an early but seminal work that grew, along with the two "Corrigan" poems presented alongside it in this volume, from a comparatively short but intense period in Tolkien's life when he was deeply engaged with Celtic, and particularly Breton, myth and legend.
Aotrou and Itroun are a Breton lord and lady residing "in Britain's land beyond the seas" during the mythic age of chivalry. Childless and desperate for an heir, Aotrou seeks out a magic potion from a corrigan, or malevolent fairy. When the potion succeeds, the corrigan returns to demand her fee, and Aotrou is forced to choose between his marriage and his life.
Originally written in 1930 and long out of print, The Lay of Aotrou and Itroun may be set alongside Tolkien's The Legend of Sigurd and Gudr n, The Fall of Arthur, and The Story of Kullervo. Like these other retellings of myths and legends, it was a powerful influence on Tolkien's own legendarium.

Very nice!
I purchased this clutch purse for date nights with my husband. I think it is very chic. I was surprised by the room it had. It will hold my cell phone, lipstick and my slim wallet. I may order another one.

Great Bag
Color: Obsidian Black
This is by far one of the best handbags/purses I have bought off Amazon. it is practical, elegant, fun and bonus that you can easily have the shoulder strap attached to the bag if you want to use it, or you can easily put it inside and still have room for a wallet and phone. Sometime you want a strap, sometimes you don't and something you just don't know.....with this purse, you can have it anyway, anytime. Thanks Midwest Money Saving Mommas for recommending this cute purse. Bring on girls weekend!

Fits everything!
Color: Gilded Gold, Color: Gilded Gold
Beautiful clutch, good size. It fit my phone, make up, keys without a problem. It did smell very bad in the inside though. I didn’t realize it before hand since I opened it on my way to my event. Every time I’d open it and the smell could linger.
