Is it alright, Helen, if we draw folk's attention to "forthcoming" books on Tolkien? I'm always fascinated with works that view Tolkien from a fresh angle.
Sharon, of course. Just keep your post fairly balanced between the novice-interest-level and the level expected by the 'Coming of Age' clubbers et al.

EDIT: Okay, what I meant was this: Be sure to include whether you think the book suitable for an introduction to Tolkien Criticism or not, and if you want to go into depth way beyond the ooutline, start a new thread for it.

In other words, be sure to clearly answer the last bullet in the outline. If the anwer is "No, this book is not suitable for a Freshman Tolkien Scholar," just say so.

(end EDIT)

As long as the thread remains appealing and navigable for novices I'll be happy. Thanks!
