I enjoyed very much this thread and the thoughts of each of you [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
What I do like, is the way this book can suggest so many interpretations depending on the different sentiveness of each readers! That makes my world more colorful and interesting [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
Thanks Sharon for letting us express our imagination.
I would like to add somthing about the Frodo/Gollum caring part:
Right, I think Gollum, because he was a ring bearer, is able to notice the light within Frodo. Not conscious that might have play a part of his attraction to Frodo as well as the ring is.
But Gollum and Frodo are in a certain way a-like, one the reverse picture of the other though the hole of the ring.
I remember someone telling: Gollum the evil, is what frodo, the Good could be if he choose the evil path and vice et versa..
In first sight , It seems to be the “manicheen” battle Evil/Good but Tolkien --with scene as--
Quote from an other ringer lover :" Gollum spies Frodo and Sam in the perilous tower
sleeping in the comfort of each other's friendship and trust, he is
changed, even just for a moment. The book says that for a moment you
could almost see the old hobbit he once was. His insatiable thirst
for the ring is momentarily disrupted by the longing for (and memory
of) something deeper and better.”
Or the creazyness of Frodo above the crack of doom consumed by the power of the ring—
reminds our naive minds of –nothing is black or white, that in the awfulest creature a fiber of humanity could exist, and the quest for good doesn’t always means happyness, thinking of Frodo.
I admit I have a thing for Gollum‘s portraying, Tolkien managed to make this despicable creature to look almost human with his weaknesses .
Gollum is the story of someone who belonged to the “human” kind and lost it because of his unability to control all the feelings that made him human.
Gollum's Envy can make him so cunning ! His trick to reach frodo is to recall what few humanity part he has left, Smeagol with the desire to be perfidious.
But what was unexpected - is that Gollum fell in his own trap and just for a moment the mask of the creature Gollum craked!
What is extraordinary is that ,only, WE, readers, are aware of this, Frodo and Sam are sleeping!
And the secret between Gollum and us make him less evil to me so his betrayal affected me deeper!
