Tolkien (J.R.R.). The Fellowship of the Ring / The Two Towers / The Return of the King, 1st ed., pub. George Allen & Unwin, 1954/5, Richard Adams's copy, with his ms. ownership signature and bookplate to each vol., and a few pencilled annotations in his hand, folding map to each, a.e.g., recent scarlet crushed morocco for Asprey, with orig. cloth covers bound in at rear of each vol., spines with gilt dot dec. raised bands, gilt lettered direct on a seme dot ground in second and third compartments, remainder with art nouveau flower tool surrounded by seme dots within double fillet frame, covers with gilt single fillet border, inner dot-filled double fillet border, with stylised flowers at corners, central single fillet panel filled with dots and roundels, with scabious flower at centre of each side, single fillet to board edges, gilt dec. turn-ins, 8vo. With six pages of important manuscript notes by Richard Adams, in which he pours out his thoughts about Tolkien's work and compares it to his own, in a free-flowing hand, with numerous additions and underlinings. He calls Gollum a marvellous conception... the awful, unacceptable outsider, who nevertheless is of huge value, and compares him to others who he sees as similar figures, such as Van Gogh, Shelley, Nelson, Emmeline Pankhurst and John Wesley. He goes on to say that Tolkien did not influence his own work, but changes his mind as he writes: I dont care for Magic and dont resort to it at all... I cant think of any respect in which Tolkien has influenced me. Afterthought. What about The Girl in a Swing?Ó Supernatural. M.R. James?. Adams expresses his disappointment that there are only two female characters in Lord of the RingsÓ - Galadriel and Eowen - neither of whom, he says, exactly represent real Womanhood: (Im sure that Women's Lib. dont care for the overwhelmingly masculine tone of the conflict and the characterisation.) Ask Germaine Greer?Ó (And Watership DownÓ has been criticised for this. But the whole W.D. story hinges on the necessity of the female to a true society.) Adams concludes that his feelings about Lord of the RingsÓ echo Dr. Johnson's about Paradise LostÓ: No man ever wished it longerÓ. (3)
