Christopher Tolkien kept botanical notebooks, recording the plants and flowers he saw. Here is one page, noting “a particularly fine year for Orchids” in 1964
Watching the ROTK documentaries for the Jackson movie, I suddenly realise that I am close friends with Brian Sibley. I have translated @JohnGarthWriter. I met Tom Shippey and we shared some interesting conversations. I have talked to John Howe...
I am a very lucky person.

“I must ask you to believe that letters (of any length) to an isolated man are like bread to a prisoner starving in a tower.”

This is the magazine for the military hospital in Birmingham where #Tolkien stayed from November 9, 1916 (until late January 1917) after leaving the Somme. It was read by convalescing soldiers and featured poems, jokes, and accounts of entertainments for those in the hospital.

110 years ago today, on 27 October 1916, the young J.R.R. Tolkien fell ill with trench fever.
He had been serving as a signalling officer with the 11th Battalion of the Lancashire Fusiliers during the Battle of the Somme. The illness took him out of the front line, and by early November he was on his way home to hospital in England.
Many of the men he served with were not so fortunate. On Remembrance Sunday we'll share more about Tolkien and the Great War.

«la mitad de [Frodo] no quería partir, y los largos paseos empezaron a atemorizarlo, por temor a que el barro que tuviera en los pies lo arrastrara lejos» (3a fase de escritura de "El Señor de los Anillos")
Me recuerda a lo que dijo Bombadil de Maggot, "Hay tierra bajo sus pies"

Esta noche, en la que las 3 serán las 2, curraré una hora extra. Tengo la "maldición" de currar mejor de noche, así que, cafetazo mediante, voy a aprovechar esta contingencia.
