Interview with Benjamin Harff, upcoming Tolkien illustrator and creator of the Edel-Silmarillion

Benjamin Harff, a German art student, spent a year creating a copy of The Silmarillion in the tradition of medieval European illuminated manuscripts. Most of the text itself is typed, but the elaborate calligraphy is Harff’s own work.

That looks absolutely amazing... what a beautiful thing to own... though I dare say I still would read very little of it, The Silmarillion is just too sad for me to take in for pleasure. But - I must NOT procrastinate, I'll read the article later.

Really just dropped in to say I hope you and Jim are above prospective flood levels, and keep safe dear.
