I love this lecture. Also, as a single work, Children of Hurin is actually my favorite Tolkien piece. Though depending on my mood, that claim changes to “The Hobbit.”
Thanks Bandoras! I’m always hunting for good lectures about the Professor. This one was a real gem. 🙂
Huge thanks Victoria for bringing this to me! I loved it and learned much 🙂
