A propos du livre

À propos des auteurs

J.R.R.Tolkien (1892-1973) was a distinguished academic, though he is best known for writing The Hobbit, The Lord of the Rings and The Silmarillion, plus other stories and essays. His books have been translated into over 80 languages and have sold many millions of copies worldwide.

Christopher Tolkien, born on 24 November 1924, was the third son of J.R.R. Tolkien. As his father’s literary executor, he devoted over forty years to the publication of his father’s unpublished works, from The Silmarillion and Unfinished Tales to Beren and Lúthien and The Fall of Gondolin, and within 'The History of Middle-earth' series, and was awarded the Bodley Medal for his services to literature in 2016. He died in January 2020 at the age of 95.

À propos de la quatrième de couverture

For generations, J R R Tolkien's words have brought to thrilling life a world of hobbits, magic and historic myth, woken from its foggy slumber within our minds. Here, he tells the tale in his own voice.

Of historic note, these selections from
'The Hobbit
' and
'The Lord of the Rings
' are based on a tape recording Tolkien made in 1952, which inspired him to continue his own quest to see his vision in print. Also included is a never-published poem,
'The Mirror of Galadriel
', originally intended for inclusion in the trilogy, yet edited out. And, finally, Tolkien's son, Christopher, reads selections from his father's
'The Silmarillion
', the epic foundation upon which rests the whole of his work.
