TREE AND LEAF

,

Where do the fairies, these fantasy creatures come from, and how are stories about them made, how are fairy tales created? A true wizard author, Tolkien reveals himself to us on the occasion of an essay on fairy tales. In a brilliant way he introduces us to his stories from the “back door” and helps us trace and understand why people love fairy tales, why they seek to create their own reality through stories and beings created by their imagination. The essay is accompanied by the novella “Leaf by Niggle”, which convinces us that fairyland is all around us and its wonders are accessible to each of us, and by the short play “The Homecoming of Beorhtnoth Beorhthelm’s Son”, where the reader is introduced to J.R.R.Tolkien’ s academic studies. on the ancient English epic texts that were his sources of inspiration in the creation of the mythology of Middle-earth.
