书籍简介:
Bilbo Baggins enjoys a quiet and contented life, with no desire to travel far from the comforts of home; then one day the wizard Gandalf and a band of dwarves arrive unexpectedly and enlist his services — as a burglar — on a dangerous expedition to raid the treasure-hoard of Smaug the dragon. Bilbo′s life is never to be the same again.
THE HOBBIT became an instant success when it was first published in 1937, and 75 years later Tolkien′s epic tale of elves, dwarves, trolls, goblins, myth, magic and adventure, with its reluctant hero Bilbo Baggins, has lost none of its appeal.
Now, for the first time, the classic hardback edition is available in a one-off special pocket-sized edition. Featuring the distinctive cover illustration painted by Tolkien himself, plus his own drawings in the book, this edition will be the perfect gift for little hobbits everywhere!
作者简介:
J.R.R. 托尔金（J.R.R. Tolkien）（1892-1973），英国文豪，天才的语言学家，牛津大学默顿学院英国语言与文学教授，1919—1920年牛津英语词典（OED）的编委。他以瑰丽的想像和精深的语言，建立了一个英语世界的全新神话体系。托尔金的雄心壮志不在于写作一个传奇故事，或一部史诗。在他所创作的一系列中洲史诗中，影响最为深远的是《霍比特人》（The Hobbit: There and Back Again） 和《魔戒》（The Lord of the Rings）。这两部巨作被誉为当代奇幻作品的鼻祖，至今已畅销2.5亿余册，被翻译成60余种语言。美国每年销售的大约一亿本平装书中，就有四分之一可以追溯到托尔金的作品。《魔戒》被美国亚马逊网络书店票选为“两千年以来最重要的书”。由托尔金小说改编的电影《指环王》《霍比特人》掀起21世纪奇幻文艺的全面复兴。世界拜倒在他脚下。
