Welcome to Litsy!

I read Canto II today and found it took a bit more effort to read than the first one.

The way Tolkien describes Guinevere in this section reminds me of Luthien fleeing from her house in the tree and out of the forest of Doriath.

Happy Sunday! My goal this week is to read a canto daily, but I‘m not sure I‘ll manage it consistently. Whether or not I get to post during the week, I‘m happy to be back to some Sunday mornings with Tolkien. I don‘t consider myself much of a poetry fan, but I love this alliterative style of narrative poem. The language is beautiful.

Late as always, but l have started this book 😜

But so, this is an original Tolkien?
Is it not a translation, like Gawain and the Green Knight?

It‘s been a full day with family, so I‘m just now getting a chance to post about reading the foreword of The Fall of Arthur. It includes some interesting introductory information, and I‘m looking forward to staring the poem tomorrow! I‘ve enjoyed other poetry by Tolkien using an alliterative style, so I‘m intrigued to see what I think of this one. Anyone else gotten started already?

Thanks so much to @Daisey for having created the schedule.
And sorry for being this late in posting it. I still hope some of you will be able to join..

Life has being quite hectic, but I'm working hard in getting back into reading regularly.
So here we go! 💪

What has everyone been up to? 😁

#FellowshipOfTolkien Readers, here‘s our plan for The Fall of Arthur! I would like to finish reading it in February, but I also think this book may require some slow, close reading. Remember our schedule is always a very loose guideline and feel free to post your thoughts at any time. I hope to make time to post each weekend if not during the week.

@Daisey and l are planning to start a new #MedievalTolkien read, possibly at the beginning of February.

So, you know, l was an Arthurian legends fan before l became a Tolkien fan. Is this coming full circle? 😆

Pleas join us if you are a Tolkien fan, an Arthurian legends fan, a Medieval history fan... a reader 😁

Tolkien readers, I‘m waiting on my copy to arrive in order to plan a timeline, but our next read will be The Fall of Arthur. @JazzFeathers and I hope to start at the beginning of February, but we can push it back if needed for interested readers to find copies.

Although I am tagging my entire Tolkien list today, please comment if you‘re interested in being tagged for this book specifically.
