The Lord of the Rings – J. R. R. Tolkien A book review " The Lord of The Rings" I first read The Lord of the Rings aged nine or ten and have, since then, re-read it many times. There are many pleasures to be had in re-reading this book, though I should note that this version of the text is slightly different to the familiar one-volume paperback of 1980 vintage, so there are some minor changes. Unfortunately the electronic version has trouble reproducing runes and Tengwar letters as clearly and is not always as free from typographical errors (persistently mistyping Éomer, for example) as the printed version. In case you’ve never read the book (or seen the films), the story proper begins with the hobbit Bilbo Baggins (first encountered in The Hobbit, and whose adventures it tells) and his eleventy-first birthday. At a feast and party of great magnificence, Bilbo uses his magic ring (which he found on his previous adventures) to disappear from the Shire entirely, leaving the ...

Art: An identity Hello and welcome to my blog about art! My name is Raisha and I am a passionate artist and art enthusiast. I have always been drawn to the creative world and have spent many years exploring different mediums and techniques. I am particularly interested in realist and abstract art and have spent a lot of time studying and practising in this area. Whether it's Surrealism or Impressionism, I am constantly inspired by the endless possibilities of creativity and self-expression. At its core, art is a means of self-expression and communication, allowing artists to explore and convey their thoughts, feelings, and ideas through creative means. Art can also serve as a way to document and reflect on the world around us, giving us insight into different cultures, histories, and experiences. From the paintings in our homes to the sculptures we see on public grounds, art has a profound impact on how we view the world. Because of this, many artists feel a strong urge to sh...
