Much denser wordplay than LotR!

Smith of Wootton Major is more delicate and lovely than anyone would expect from a story with such a title.
Farmer Giles of Ham is ridiculous, and hilarious, and full of small true things.
Less Known submitted by thesrays on August 25, 2019, 7:18pm but well worth the read, as Tolkien is a master storyteller
Smith of Wootton Major : : and Farmer Giles of Ham submitted by lstorc on August 27, 2019, 5:17pm Smith of Wootton Major is enjoyable and relaxing. Farmer Giles of Ham is a little harder to get into, but worth it!
