Silmarillion Readthrough 2026 » Episode 25 » Chapter 21 » Of Túrin Turambar (EP301 REVISITED)

In the latest episode of our epic, chapter-by-chapter Silmarillion journey, we’ll explore Chapter 21, “Of Túrin Turambar”
The tale of Túrin is a long one, rivaling “Of Beren and Lúthien” and “Akallabêth” as the longest chapter in The Silmarillion. It is also quite tragic, as we shall see. After giving a bit of background on Túrin’s ancestry, it picks up where the last chapter left off, with Túrin’s father Húrin imprisoned in Angband. The chapter then focuses in on the highly tragic twists and turns of Túrin’s life.
