    Part 1: The Fellowship of the Ring.Midway in the journey of our life --On getting lost --"Who is Tom Bombadil?" --Uncles --Lyric and heroic --Samwise the wise --Tolkien the terrible --Gollum, soul of the book --The fuzzy distance --The balrog: dread from the depths --Lothlorien: the worst wound --Part 2 : The Two Towers.A haze of gold --The love of trees --The art of writing terrain --"The world is gnawed by nameless things" --Tolkien the terrible (2) --Tolkien's subtlety --Frodo's laughter --"An evil thing in spider-form" --Part 3 : The Return of the King.The art of the "meanwhile" --"The insupportable weight of Middle-earth" --"A hutch to trammel some wild thing in" --Denethor the Asura --Athelas : a cure for spiritual sickness --Why Tolkien is so enjoyable to read aloud --Mount Doom : climax or anticlimax? --For Eowyn, a trammel? --Ceremonial heroism --Multiple endings --Frodo's wound --Sam's deep breath: the exquisite ending --Adult consolations: Tolkien on fantasy. "Why do lovers of J.R.R. Tolkien's LORD OF THE RINGS trilogy return to it again and again through their lives? Why does each rereading seem more nourishing? FRODO'S WOUND is a collection of essays that approaches these questions from various angles. It argues that while epic conflict and heroic warriors may provide the initial allure to the book, what lingers and deepens with each reading is its emotional complexity, its knowledge of loss and grief, and its yearning for something only dimly understood. Uniquely, it is a study of Tolkien that barely mentions Christianity and assumes no broad knowledge of the mythological world of Middle-earth. Instead, the book offers a series of close readings that reveal Tolkien's subtlety and sensitivity, and does not shy away from probing the significance of his occasional clumsiness. FRODO'S WOUND shows why Tolkien is a great writer, and why THE LORD OF THE RINGS is really a book for older adults--indeed, for anyone who has ever lost their way" --
