ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

"The Children of Húrin" by J.R.R. Tolkien is a tragic tale set in the First Age of Middle-earth, exploring themes of fate, free will, and the destructive power of evil. It centers on the family of Húrin, who are cursed by Morgoth, the Dark Lord.

The story follows Túrin, Húrin's son, as he seeks to defy his doom, but his actions lead to a series of tragic events, including the downfall of kingdoms and the suffering of his loved ones. Niënor, Túrin's sister, also falls victim to the curse, and her fate becomes intertwined with his in unforeseen and devastating ways.

The narrative delves into the corrupting influence of Morgoth's malice, which extends beyond physical force to manipulation and deception, ultimately leading to a tragic and inevitable end for the children of Húrin.
