I have to say I think THS fails as a book, as L’s great friend Tolkien opined, but it has more interesting ideas in it than most successful works.

I disagree with Tolkien - whom I find to be unreadable - I place THS on a list of the 100 best books of the 20th century.

“as L’s great friend Tolkien opined”

How can you bring that up without mentioning king his quippy alternate title: That Hideous Book.
