QUOTE OF THE WEEK

When you are a Bear of Very Little Brain, and Think of Things, you find sometimes that a Thing which seemed very Thingish inside you is quite different when it gets out into the open and has other people looking at it.

The Children of Hurin

by J.R.R. Tolkien, edited by Christopher Tolkien

His story, released today by Houghton Mifflin, is a publishing event: It is the first new book by the creator of "The Lord of the Rings" in 30 years. The publisher calls it the culmination of an effort to bring to the public the vast body of work J.R.R. Tolkien had left unpublished, and largely unfinished, when he died in 1973.

Tolkien began writing "The Children of Hurin" 99 years ago, abandoning it and taking it up again repeatedly throughout his life. Versions of the tale already have appeared in "The Silmarillion," "Unfinished Tales" and as narrative poems or prose sections of the "History of Middle-earth" series.

I'm glad that's out. I think my boys would like to have this to read over the summer. Thanks

I just posted about this too. (Duh, I just used your linky feature -- that's new to me). Anyway, I'm very much hoping that you will let us know what you think of it.

Best,

Suzanne
