Description

Originally published way back in 1954-55, Tolkien’s ‘The Lord of the Rings’ trilogy was released when the People’s Republic of China (PRC) was mostly closed off to the world. In the past few decades, however, the author’s celebrated stories have found their way into the hearts and minds of China’s citizens.

In this episode of the podcast, we explore how the literary works of the ‘father of high fantasy’ made their way to China.
