Tolkin. Don s Bych'ego broda - Prashkevich G.M., Solov'ev S.V.

For many decades in different countries people of all ages not only read with pleasure the works of John R. R. Tolkien, but also gather on forest glades to knock their pleasure with swords, again and again playing the great victory of Good over Evil. And all this was invented and created by a venerable Oxford professor, pedant and stay-at-home, devout Catholic. He came to us from Victorian England, when no one had heard of any Middle-earth, and left at the end of the 20th century, leaving us this very Middle-earth densely populated elves and gnomes, goblins and trolls, hobbits and orcs, elephant-oliphants and proud Eagles; magician and wizard Gandalf became our friend, as did the noble Aragorn, as well as the beautiful queen of the elves Galadriel, as, finally, the tireless and fearless hobbits Bilbo and Frodo. Writers Gennady Prashkevich and Sergei Solovyov, having carefully studied the works of Tolkien and the canvas of his biography, managed to create a complete biography of an amazing man who managed to transform and enrich our huge world.
