Tolkien Versus the Modern World

The Ring and the Cross: Christianity and the Lord of the RingsThe Ring and the Cross: Christianity and the Lord of the Rings by Paul E. Kerry
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I think the multiple viewpoints (both pagan and Christian)are very interesting. Reading this book made me realize that Chesterton and Belloc had influenced Tolkien as a young man. Tolkien's myth confronts the Scientism and Capitalistic/Socialistic dualism of the modern world.
