J.R.R. Tolkien's classic prelude to his Lord of the Rings trilogy
Bilbo Baggins is a hobbit who enjoys a comfortable, unambitious life, rarely traveling any farther than his pantry or cellar. But his contentment is disturbed when the wizard Gandalf and a company of dwarves arrive on his doorstep one day to whisk him away on an adventure. They have launched a plot to raid the treasure hoard guarded by Smaug the Magnificent, a large and very dangerous dragon. Bilbo reluctantly joins their quest, unaware that on his journey to the Lonely Mountain he will encounter both a magic ring and a frightening creature known as Gollum.
Written for J.R.R. Tolkien's own children, The Hobbit has sold many millions of copies worldwide and established itself as a modern classic.

Biography
John Ronald Reuel Tolkien was born on the 3rd January, 1892 at Bloemfontein in the Orange Free State, but at the age of four he and his brother were taken back to England by their mother. After his father's death the family moved to Sarehole, on the south-eastern edge of Birmingham. Tolkien spent a happy childhood in the countryside and his sensibility to the rural landscape can clearly be seen in his writing and his pictures.
His mother died when he was only twelve and both he and his brother were made wards of the local priest and sent to King Edward's School, Birmingham, where Tolkien shine in his classical work. After completing a First in English Language and Literature at Oxford, Tolkien married Edith Bratt. He was also commissioned in the Lancashire Fusiliers and fought in the battle of the Somme. After the war, he obtained a post on the New English Dictionary and began to write the mythological and legendary cycle which he originally called "The Book of Lost Tales" but which eventually became known as The Silmarillion.
In 1920 Tolkien was appointed Reader in English Language at the University of Leeds which was the beginning of a distinguished academic career culminating with his election as Rawlinson and Bosworth Professor of Anglo-Saxon at Oxford. Meanwhile Tolkien wrote for his children and told them the story of The Hobbit. It was his publisher, Stanley Unwin, who asked for a sequel to The Hobbit and gradually Tolkien wrote The Lord of the Rings, a huge story that took twelve years to complete and which was not published until Tolkien was approaching retirement. After retirement Tolkien and his wife lived near Oxford, but then moved to Bournemouth. Tolkien returned to Oxford after his wife's death in 1971. He died on 2 September 1973 leaving The Silmarillion to be edited for publication by his son, Christopher.

这本书不仅仅是一个关于寻宝和龙的故事,它更像是一次关于成长和发现自我的寓言。主角的转变是如此的自然而令人信服,从一个安逸、喜欢舒适生活的霍比特人,逐渐成长为一个勇敢、有担当的英雄。我们看到了他在面对恐惧时如何克服,在绝望时如何寻找希望,在困境中如何发挥出自己隐藏的潜能。这种转变过程,是如此真实,以至于让我们不禁联想起自己人生中的那些关键时刻,那些让我们不得不走出舒适区,去迎接挑战的经历。
评分我特别喜欢作者对环境的描绘,那些细致入微的笔触,将每一个场景都生动地呈现在我的脑海中。无论是精灵古堡的宏伟壮观,还是矮人王国地下世界的神秘幽深,亦或是荒野山林的险峻奇绝,都充满了独特的魅力。我能感觉到风吹过草地的声音,能闻到森林泥土的芬芳,甚至能想象出那巍峨山脉的冰冷触感。这种身临其境的阅读体验,是许多其他书籍难以比拟的。
评分阅读这本书的过程,就像是在一场盛大的宴会中穿梭,充满了惊喜和美味。每一个章节都像一道精心准备的菜肴,有的清新淡雅,有的浓烈厚重,但都恰到好处地满足了读者的胃口。作者的语言风格也是一大亮点,时而幽默风趣,时而深沉隽永,总能在不经意间触动人心。我常常因为某些段落的妙语而忍俊不禁,也常常因为某些场景的悲伤而黯然神伤。
评分作者的想象力是如此的丰富,他构建了一个完整而独特的幻想世界,并且在这个世界里,赋予了各种各样的生物和文明生命。从那些奇特的生物,到那些古老的传说,都展现出了作者非凡的创造力。我常常会惊叹于他构思的精巧,以及他对细节的把握。这是一个真正意义上的“大世界”,充满了无限的可能性。
评分当我翻开这本书的第一页,就被一股奇妙的冒险气息所裹挟,仿佛自己也化身成了一个普通却又注定不凡的霍比特人,准备踏上一段未知的旅程。作者用一种近乎耳语般的方式,将我们引入了一个古老而充满魅力的世界,那里有绿色的丘陵,古老的森林,以及隐藏在山脉深处的龙穴。叙事节奏的把握非常巧妙,既有缓慢的铺垫,也有扣人心弦的高潮,让人忍不住一口气读下去,生怕错过任何一个细节。
评分这本书给我的启发,远远超出了故事本身。它让我开始思考,什么是真正的勇气,什么是真正的友谊,什么是真正的宝藏。在故事的结局,主角并没有获得堆积如山的金银珠宝,但他却获得了比任何物质财富都更宝贵的东西——经验、成长和自我认知。这或许也是作者想要传达的最核心的理念。
评分这本书带给我的,是一种久违的纯粹的快乐。在快节奏的现代生活中,我们常常被各种信息轰炸,被各种焦虑所裹挟。而这本书,就像一股清流,让我们暂时忘却尘世的喧嚣,沉浸在一个充满奇幻色彩的世界里。它提醒我们,即使是最平凡的存在,也能拥有不平凡的勇气和力量。它让我们相信,善良和勇气,终将战胜邪恶和贪婪。
评分当我合上最后一页,一种难以言喻的满足感油然而生。我知道,这段旅程已经结束,但我知道,我将永远珍藏这段美好的回忆。那些冒险的经历,那些遇见的人,那些克服的困难,都将成为我心中宝贵的财富。我可能会反复阅读这本书,每次都会从中发现新的东西,每次都会有新的感悟。
评分我强烈推荐这本书给所有热爱冒险、热爱奇幻,或者只是想从日常生活中暂时抽离出来的人。它不仅仅是一本书,更是一次心灵的旅行,一次灵魂的洗礼。它会让你重新点燃对生活的热情,让你相信,即使是在最黑暗的时刻,也总有希望的光芒。这本书,值得你花时间去品味,去感受,去珍藏。
评分书中人物的塑造也十分成功。除了主角的成长弧光,那些陪伴在他身边的角色,也都各具特色,令人难忘。他们有智慧的巫师,有坚毅的矮人,有神秘的精灵,每一个角色都拥有自己的个性和故事,他们之间的互动,也充满了趣味和深意。有时候,你会觉得他们就像你现实生活中的朋友一样,你会被他们的悲欢离合所触动,会为他们的命运而担忧。
