lotesseSo, part of my stupid busywork summer job involves teaching the first part of The Fellowship of the Ring to disgruntled high-schoolers who don't like to read. Possibly, will be fun when in implementation; at the moment, I'm just watching through endless training videos about how to spoonfeed the text to them. It's all vaguely hysterical. Did you know that Frodo was an unconventional hero, and that the Ring shows us that it's important to not kill people so you end up like Bilbo and not like Gollum? And of course there are no class divisions in the Shire, what are you talking about?
Sigh. Am surviving by consuming hobbit porn. Frodo Hill; or, Memoirs of a Hobbit of Pleasure has been of particular help.
