Tolkien wasn't so bad after all

It was with some trepidation that I clicked on the link in this tweet by Antonia Z. There are so many things coming out about people that I was worried about finding out some unsavoury things about the author of the books I loved so much as a teenager. Nice to see he wasn't so bad.

Go Sam go (the real hero). Pretty cool that there really was a Sam Gamgee.
