The Lord of the Rings - Behind the Story: Backstage Pass to Novels

Loved the novel, but still hungry for more?The Lord of the Rings is one of the most influential and important works of the twentieth century. Created through the dedication and talent of the author J.R.R. Tolkien, the tale of The Lord of the Rings is a sweeping epic that captures the imagination and thrusts the reader into Middle-earth. With a story that began forming in Tolkien’s mind when he was still studying at Oxford, his hallmark work is a fountain of depth and complexity that rivals actual historical accounts. For more than half a century, Tolkien’s work has entertained us and had a tangible impact on the modern fantasy genre.
Almost as entertaining as the actual book, the story of how Tolkien came up with his epic and the paths he took to finally get his vision published is a testament to his tenacity and focus. This comprehensive account of Tolkien’s journey to create, write, and publish his iconic book is an eye-opening look into one of literature’s most influential writers. Join us as we take a fresh look backstage behind the story of The Lord of the Rings.
