Thanks Obloquy,
I’ve never seen a picture of Tolkiens grave before. I’m curious about the names Beren and Luthien.
I am assuming that they refer to his wife and himself. Was it in fact Tolkien that selected these names, or did members of the family do this after their deaths?
I understand the significance of the love story, so I’m guessing that Tolkien himself made the choice.
