《托尔金传》内容简介
J.R.R.托尔金，现代奇幻之父，《霍比特人》《魔戒》的孕育者，中洲世界的缔造者。
托尔金幼年失去双亲、寄人篱下；少年与初恋被迫分离又重聚；青年在“一战”战场经历九死一生，失去人生知己……战后，他把所有对母亲、对妻子、对失落的家园、对挚友未竟理想的爱与激情，都倾注在对中洲世界的想象与描绘里。
汉弗莱·卡彭特采用朴素的线性叙事，让托尔金日复一日的“静”，成为栩栩如生的“动”。他是唯一见过、采访过托尔金本人的传记作者；他能不受限制地查阅托尔金家族文献；他与多位托尔金亲友交谈；他对托尔金满怀爱意，又保持着批判性距离。

Introduction to the Biography of Tolkien
J.R.R. Tolkien, the father of modern fantasy, the creator of The Hobbit, The Lord of the Rings, and the creator of Mid-Continent.
Tolkien was orphaned and dependent as a child; The boy and his first love are forced to separate and reunite; Young people in the "First World War" battlefield experienced a near-death life, lost the life friend... After the war, he poured all his love and passion for his mother, his wife, his lost home, and his unfinished ideal of his best friend into his imagination and description of the world of Mid-Continent.
Humphrey Carpenter uses plain linear narrative to make Tolkien's day-to-day "stillness" become lifelike "motion". He is the only biographer who has met and interviewed Tolkien himself; He had unfettered access to the Tolkien family literature; He spoke to a number of Tolkien relatives and friends; He was both loving and critical of Tolkien.
