En savoir plus sur le livre

A number-one New York Times bestseller upon its release, this work is central to J.R.R. Tolkien's imaginative writing, with origins predating THE HOBBIT. Tolkien regarded it as his most significant creation, published posthumously and serving as a foundation for his other writings. The narrative unfolds the creation of the world and the First Age, providing the historical backdrop for characters in THE LORD OF THE RINGS, including Elrond and Galadriel, who participated in its events. Central to the tale are the three Silmarils, jewels crafted by the Elven master Feanor, containing the Light of the Two Trees of Valinor. Following the destruction of the Trees by Morgoth, the first Dark Lord, the pure Light resided only in the Silmarils, which Morgoth seized and placed in his crown, hidden within the fortress of Angband. The work chronicles Feanor's rebellion against the gods, his exile from Valinor, and the return to Middle-earth, detailing a desperate war against the great Enemy. This edition includes a letter from Tolkien outlining his intentions for the book, offering insight into his vision of the earlier Ages of Middle-earth.
