Author: J R R Tolkien Verlyn Flieger
Title: The Lay of Aotrou and Itroun
Description: London, Harpercollins Publishers, 2016. Hardcover. Collectible Fine Hardcover Fine Dust Jacket First English Edition Second Printing. Clean 106 pp. One Facsimile page of Tolkien's manuscript. This is the most beautiful dust jacket on the English Edition. Gilt Copper gold raised titles and outline of perhaps one of the least known drawings of the Master of Middle Earth. This Tolkien poem and the masterful notes by Verlyn Flieger is an ode to Celtic Faerie and here to Breton Korrigans. The hardcover is old school and has Copper gold lettering like the jacket. Tolkien himself went to Brittany. I wonder if he went to the forest of Broceliade. Unclipped with Pound Sterling on jacket. A pristine treasure.
