Description

A collection of letters from J.R.R. Tolkien. The creator of the Middle-earth as recorded in "The Hobbit", "The Lord of the Rings" and "The Silmarillion", was also a prolific letter-writer. Over the years he wrote, to his publishers, his family, to friends (including C.S. Lewis, W.H. Auden and Naomi Mitchison) and to fans of his books. The letters present a detailed portrait of the man in many of his aspects: as storyteller, scholar, Catholic, parent and observer of the world around him. They also shed much light on his creativity and grand design for the creation of a whole new world - Middle-earth.
