A review by ekortunov
The letters of J.R.R Tolkien by J.R.R. Tolkien, Humphrey Carpenter
reflective
slow-paced
5.0
This is a unique possibility to glimpse into Tolkien life and thoughs. The collection is not ideal and i would gladly learn more about his life and views, about his time at war and many other things instead of reading that Shire was in fact in England for fith time.
Some of his views of course are pretty wierd, his relativelly early letter to one of hos sine about women and love is cringworthy. From some of his letters you can think he is some english lord with tons of oldmoney and long bloodline, not in fact pretty poor orphan.
