Leaf by Niggle by J.R.R. Tolkien follows the journey of Niggle, a painter consumed by a single, sprawling canvas of a tree. This captivating short story, often seen as an allegory of Tolkien’s own creative process, explores themes of art, obsession, and the journey to completion. First published in its own volume, this edition offers readers a chance to experience one of Tolkien’s most poignant and lesser-known works. ISBN: 9780008205539
