60b. Bonus: Jared Pechaček on The Two Towers.
The Two Towers’ landscape passages... a lot of the book is from Sam’s POV, and
he’s the gardener, and Ithilien is packed with flower names in a way that not
even the Shire is when he’s not the viewpoint character. So there’s so much
lore that he clearly is collecting as he goes. Which I think is so beautiful.
Jared Pechaček is a writer and
artist whose recent work includes illustrating the acclaimed horror novel Red
X by David
Demchuk. He’s also one of the hosts of
By-The-Bywater, a podcast here on the
Megaphonic network that’s about all things Tolkien. He lives in Seattle, where
he can generally be found either tweeting about fashion or drifting over the
beach at low tide.
Jared joins Chris and Suzanne for a wide-ranging discussion on The Two Towers,
including a look at the characters of Sam and Frodo, a reading of the
landscape of Ithilien, and a sampling of rabbit stew.
Show Notes.
Follow Jared on Twitter or
Patreon, or listen to him on By-The-Bywater.
By-The-Bywater episodes on food,
the Ents, and
Orcs.
Jared made rabbit stew for a Kitchen
Party livestream (which happens
occasionally on the Megaphonic twitch channel).
