*Agree*

Now the question is: is the Silm richer for that alone? Does the intensity of love versus the relative mildness of friendship make the Silm our favourite of JRRT's works?

What is it exactly that makes you like the Silm (or your particular favourite, I've found that most prefer it) the most????
