Gorgeous new Hobbit edition.
I am on the Harper Collins email list and I have just got notification that there will be a new illustrated Hobbit out in Sept. As you may have noticed I am seldom a great fan of Tolkien art but this lookslovely. The picture of Bilbo is charming and there is a very splendid Smaug on the special, edition.
The illustrator, Jemima Catlin has a hint of naivety in her style that reminds me of Tolkien's own pictures and they are closer to Pauline Baynes than Alan Lee. On the Christmas list.
Having trouble linking on tablet but well worth goggling.
