J.R.R. Tolkien an audio portrait
J.R.R. Tolkien was born in 1892 and he died in 1973, but the legacy he gave to the world of literature is as alive today as it has ever been. With the advent of a new series of The Lord of the Rings feature films, this audio portrait examines both Tolkien the man and the worlds he created. Brian Sibley, one of the dramatists of the acclaimed BBC Radio 4 production of The Lord of the Rings, draws together interviews taken from a number of archive radio and television programmes. They feature the author himself as well as his original publisher Rayner Unwin, his biographer Humphrey Carpenter and many others who knew and worked with him. Together they relate Tolkien's story, from his boyhood in South Africa and Warwickshire - and his experiences in the Great War - to his Oxford years and later retirement. Also examined are the themes and landscapes which shaped the Hobbit and those books which followed it.
