lrkalisto 's review for:
The Lord of the Rings
by J.R.R. Tolkien
After numerous attempts at typing a review where I would sound dense and erudite, I've decided to let simple words speak for my sentiments: I love Lord of the Rings.
To me, this is the book for all seasons. I find examples of courage, cowardice, wisdom, foolishness, the greatness of the small, the smallness of the great, and many other things teeming between the flowery, yet humble, prose. With the Fellowship, I hoped, laughed, rejoiced, and despaired. I could continue listing words, but that would tire me and whoever deigns to read this review.
My pitch is thus: read it! Maybe you will love it, maybe you will find it boring and wordy. This is one of few books whose elements are so diverse, so broad-appealing, that I believe there is something for everyone in The Lord of the Rings.
