Hello Arthur,
I re-read ‘The Hobbit’ last year just before the film came out. I still think it’s magical. I think Peter Jackson’s films really do marry well – they match my imagination. Despite this, I can’t help but wonder what Guilermo Del Toro’s adaptation of ‘The Hobbit’ would have looked like; probably a dark and twisted shire.
I like the sound of incantation – how about you? Do any of these words make it into your favourite words?
