J. R. R. Tolkien - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | When he was stationed at Kingston upon Hull, one day he and Edith went walking in the woods at nearby Roos, and Edith began to dance for him in a clearing among the flowering hemlock: "We walked in a wood where hemlock was growing, a sea of white flowers" |
 | | This incident inspired the account of the meeting of Beren and LĂșthien, and Tolkien often referred to Edith as his LĂșthien. |
 | | His son Christopher, with some assistance from fantasy writer Guy Gavriel Kay, organized some of this material into one volume, published as The Silmarillion in 1977. |
