And besides, it's written by a professor of philology at Oxford, one of the most popular books ever, and so on, and so on. How acn it possibly be a crappy book if it is?
And you know, the article is so one-sided and simple-minded that it makes me want to puke...
I can agree to some critisism of LotR - a little critisism never really hurt anybody - but this guy is simply banging the book in his own head; he is perhaps jealous, or maybe his parents made him eat its pages when he was little? I don't know, I just can't see how he can hack at this literary work as if it was crap?
