What do you feel when you read the book?

[lindil]

Unfinished Tales and a few other late writings, have for me a certain magic that more than any ealier writings conveys quite abit of the level of being of the characters. I feel Tuor and Turins struggles [not too mention the visual imagery that comes to my mind via the writing] Gandalf;s retelling of the unexpected party almost gets me in his soul, not just his head. For a moment, I am breathing a finer air as Thingol did

In BEleriand King Thingol upon his throne was as the lords of the Maiar, whose power is at rest, whose joy is as an air that they breathe in all of their days, whose thought flows in a tide untroubled from the heights to the deeps.

from ch 10 - Of the Sindar - The Silmarillion
