If there was a writer capable...
If there was a writer capable, and if you had your choice, which kind of Tolkienian book would you want the writer to write? Like...
The Silmarillion? .... mythic epic The Lord of the Rings? .... a quest romance The Hobbit .... a coming-of-age story redolent of Grimm fairy tales Roverandom/Father Christmas Tales/Farmer Giles of Ham .... light hearted winsome tales Leaf by Niggle/Smith of Wootton Major .... bittersweet elegies There are various ways one could approach this, such as in terms of style, or spirit, or theme. I'm going for more than style, but do not care to insist upon "spirit of", nor "theme". So choose on the basis that seems most appropriate to you. The point is the choice .... and the "because", of course. I'm curious and really want to know. I think I know what I would pick, but won't say right away. Sorry, but you have to choose one. |
