About this episode

One of the goals of great books is to help us see our world more clearly. Few books do this like J.R.R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings. In Robert Dobie's new book The Fantasy of J.R.R Tolkien, he shows how Tolkien recovers a Christian vision of the world, nature, language, myth, virtue, death, and humanity.
