About this episode

Placeholder lead-in — a short note on the evening: which book comes down off the shelf, the passage Malcolm reads, and where the musing wanders. Written for the site, in the warm register of the series, not a transcript.

Taken down from the shelf

The Lord of the Rings

J.R.R. Tolkien
