He had been working on The Lord of the Rings for more than fourteen years by then and had almost given up hope of ever seeing it in print. J.R.R. The result was one of the most popular and influential series of novels of the 20th century!This recording includes the poem "The Mirror of Galadriel," originally meant for inclusion in Book Two of The Fellowship of the Ring.. Tolkien, in this extraordinary, historically important recording, leads listeners with prose, poems, and songs into the fantastic world of The Hobbit and The Fellowship of the Ring.This audio is based on a tape that Tolkien made for his friends in August 1952. But making this recording reassured him of his talent and prompted him to send his manuscripts to a former pupil who had become a publisher
Anneliese Knop said The Voice of a Genius. My first exposure to Tolkien was my mother reading The Hobbit to me and my sister. I have since read everything I could get my hands on of his, so when I found this cd on amazon I was psyched! I threw the disc into my laptop as soon as it arrived and fired up iTunes, and I was not disappointed. It brings a real connection to the man to hear his voice. I specialize in studying dict. "Four Stars" according to Maureen Rawlins. Great, however, they are just excerpts and not full stories.. Cmdinla said Tolkien Reading - Must have. Years ago, I had the original LPs of the readings (and still have them), so I was very surprised that when browsing Amazon, I found this. It was an instant buy.Highly recommend if you are a fan. To here JRR speaking the poems and passages from his books is amazing. He has this rich deep voice.Buy this now!
