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 60 languages and have sold many millions of copies worldwide.
‘An extraordinary book. It deals with a stupendous theme. It leads
us through a succession of strange and astonishing episodes, some
of them magnificent, in a region where everything is invented,
forest, moor, river, wilderness, town and the races which inhabit
them.’
Observer ‘Among the greatest works of imaginative fiction of the
twentieth century.’
Sunday Telegraph ‘The English-speaking world is divided into those
who have read The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit and those who
are going to read them.’
Sunday Times ‘A story magnificently told, with every kind of colour
and movement and greatness.’
New Statesman ‘Masterpiece? Oh yes, I’ve no doubt about that.’
