- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5More absurd humour from the intrepid insurance salesman Fré van der Mugge (Jérôme Moucherot in the original). This volume contains a bunch of short stories. A highpoint is the homage to Little Nemo, 'Een droom in een glas water', a beautiful dream sequence ending with Fré on the wrong side of a mirror and forced to watch Fré's wife schmoozing with her dream lover.I still prefer 'Tanden van de Haai', but this volume is well worth it as well.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Wyatt's depictions of the landscape and architecture of Tolkien's Middle-earth are really very good: by turns ethereal and otherworldly, then dark, brooding and menacing. Her figures, on the other hand, are either charmingly na?ve or clunky and amateurish, depending on your point of view. I incline towards the former, remembering Tolkien's own limitations as an artist of the human (and non-human) form.
Whenever I re-read The Lord of the Rings, I keep this album nearby and refer to the illustrations at the appropriate point in the text to lend a bit of atmosphere and to compare the image in my mind's eye with that of Ms Wyatt's paintings. Given that she has paid close attention to Tolkien's descriptions, it is always interesting to note the differences from my visualisations that the same words can weave in another person's imagination.
