Sinossi
Pubblicato per la prima volta in un volume a sé stante, il racconto straordinario di Tolkien su un pittore la cui ossessione per i dettagli gli impedisce di finire la sua grande opera. Niggle è un pittore. Non uno di grande successo, in parte perché ha così tante altre cose da fare. Da qualche tempo è ossessionato da una tela in particolare: un curioso dipinto di un albero con un vasto paesaggio che si estende dietro. Il dipinto diventa sempre più grande, ma Niggle ha un viaggio da fare. Nel 1939 Tolkien disperava di riuscire mai a portare a termine la sua grande opera Il Signore degli Anelli. Una mattina si svegliò con il racconto Foglia di Niggle completato nella sua mente e lo scrisse. Questa toccante storia, su un artista in un curioso viaggio, è spesso vista come un'allegoria del processo creativo e della vita dello scrittore. Pubblicata in concomitanza con una nuova messa in scena itinerante della storia, questa è la prima volta che la storia viene pubblicata in un volume a sé stante, consentendo ai lettori di assaporare uno dei racconti più eleganti, inquietanti e meno noti di Tolkien. Il libro di JRR Tolkien "The Fall of Númenor" è stato un bestseller del Sunday Times nella settimana del 07-11-2022.

Paperback. Condizione: New. Published for the very first time in its own volume, Tolkien's remarkable tale about a painter whose obsession with detail prevents him from finishing his great work. Niggle is a painter. Not a very successful one, partly because he has so many other things to do. For some time he has been obsessed with one particular canvas - a curious picture of a tree with a vast landscape stretching out behind it. The painting keeps getting bigger and bigger, but Niggle has a journey to make. In 1939 Tolkien was despairing of ever bringing his great work The Lord of the Rings to a conclusion. One morning he woke up with the story Leaf by Niggle complete in his mind and wrote it down. This poignant story, about an artist on a curious journey, is often seen as an allegory of the writer's own creative process and life. Published to coincide with a new touring stage production of the story, this is the first time the story has been published in its own volume, enabling readers to savour one of Tolkien's most elegant, haunting and least-known short stories.
