Word. If Pullman is, at least in part, playing to some supposed audience with his Tolkien-bashing, then I ain't it. Like others in this thread, I'm fascinated by the burr he has under his saddle about the prof. You'd think he would rather be known for his creative work than for being a Tolkien pundit -- but then again maybe it just goes to show that his creative work is only a means for furthering his agenda rather than an end in itself.
