Un article dans "the guardian" ce matin intitulé "hate elves and hobbits". cet article propose aux lecteurs d'exprimer le pourquoi de leur haine des écrits de Tolkien. Je reproduit le texte dans son entier. Si certains d'entre vous ont le temps de répondre?

Why is it that people find Tolkien dull and turgid? I can think of a few reasons myself, chiefly the impression he gives of writing in a dead, if freshly killed, language and lack of remotely credible women (of course, it's much easier to write a credible hobbit). But this is really just a space for anyone who wants to denounce him in an entertaining or thought provoking way.
Feel free.
