I encourage those who experience such difficulties to see the thread How to read a much longer Silmarillion Much of the compression CJRT allowed to stand in THe Silmarillion is reduced when the longer [ and later] versions of UT and HoME 10-12 are added into the mix. The details added especially to Hurin and Turin are substantial, and to Finrod. Just these additions alone help reduce the feeling of compression. Also worthy of mention but ommitted in the referenced thread is the LQ versions of The Elves in Valinor. These along with the latter half of the Shibboleth of Feanor give a greater depth and feeling to the descendants of Finwe. [ January 17, 2003: Message edited by: lindil ]
