The first ever trade edition of Tolkien's illustrated tale about
the eccentric Mr Bliss, a man notable for his immensely tall hats
and for the girabbit in his garden, whose whimsical decision to buy
a motor car quickly becomes a catalogue of disasters. Professor
J.R.R. Tolkien invented and illustrated the book of Mr Bliss's
adventures for his own children when they were very young. The book
was handwritten with lots of detailed and uproarious colour
pictures. This is a complete and highly imaginative tale of
eccentricity. Mr Bliss, a man notable for his immensely tall hats
and for the girabbit in his garden, takes the whimsical decision to
buy a motor car. But his first drive to visit friends quickly
becomes a catalogue of disasters. Some of these could be blamed on
Mr Bliss's style of driving, but even he could not anticipate being
hijacked by three bears. As for what happened next - the readers,
whether young or old, will want to discover for themselves.
Redesigned using new archival scans of Tolkien's original drawings,
MR BLISS is presented for the first time in a conventional trade
format, sure to delight Tolkien fans of all ages.
