Please spread the word. February's meeting we will focus on the influence of Finnish legends on Tolkien, and may have time to jump into Letters of Tolkien 76-77 if time.
The Secretary suggests that each of the regular attenders take on a facet of Finland to share: 1) geography
2) a brief history of the Finns
3) their stories/mythic literature
4) what JRRT read of them/was influenced by them.* Namarie!
