There's so much imagery that it's nigh on impossible not to appreciate Tolkien's work.

Unless you're the type of person who can't be bothered coping with the overload of information. Tolkien's writing is, of course, like no other -- it is a lot more than simply a story, however detailed that story might be. The simple stories that he did write, eg LoTR (which draws much on the mythology but is a highly-detailed narrative) are of course very well written and full of imagery.
Note -- It's fine to talk about de ja vous etc a
little bit, but do try to make them relate to what we're talking about or at least something in Tolkien won't you? [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
