The Lord of the Rings
J. R. R. TolkienDr Hannah McDonaldI’ve acquired a few different copies of The Lord of the Rings over the years. I don’t generally buy multiple copies of the same book (there is just not enough shelf space! 😅) but who can resist a nice edition of #LOTR! #Tolkien https://t.co/J3vuTF0oRS

The Silmarillion
J. R. R. TolkienDr Hannah McDonaldIt’s a really nice touch that they included this pamphlet with the deluxe edition of #TheSilmarillion released last year. Lovely to have a little bite-sized booklet by Christopher Tolkien describing the monumental task he had in producing The Silmarillion! #Tolkien #LOTR https://t.co/5dCGxftFos

Tales from the Perilous Realm
J. R. R. TolkienDr Hannah McDonaldTolkien’s shorter works are some of my favourite things to read, particularly Leaf by Niggle and Smith of Wootton Major. My old copy of Tales from the Perilous Realm (bought 20+ years ago) doesn’t include Roverandom so I had to buy it separately! #Tolkien #LOTR #LordOfTheRings https://t.co/2VeajbWec5

The Lost Road and Other Writings
J. R. R. TolkienDr Hannah McDonald“Here is certainly the first appearance of Gil-galad, the Elf-king in Beleriand, descended from Feanor (it would be interesting to know his parentage)” Yes CJRT. Yes it would. From The Lost Road and Other Writings. #Tolkien #LOTR #LordOfTheRings https://t.co/sjXp10ZrlG

The Tolkien Reader
J. R. R. TolkienDr Hannah McDonald“On Fairy-stories” has appeared in several different books (I don’t have The Tolkien Reader or Essays Presented to Charles Williams). It’s Tolkien’s manifesto on how fairy stories relate to fantasy/myth & explains his approach to his own writing. Not to be missed! #Tolkien #LOTR https://t.co/EJzXH5x9cc

Unfinished Tales
J. R. R. TolkienDr Hannah McDonaldJay Johnstone is an exceptional artist and I find his paintings of Isildur to be particularly moving. “The Death of Isildur” perfectly captures the redemptive story that appears in Unfinished Tales. #Tolkien #LOTR #Isildur #UnfinishedTales #LordoftheRings https://t.co/Fi8a5eIW1Y
