Finally arrived, my hardback copy of The Hobbit translated into Scottish Gaelic. Looks superb, and includes Tolkien’s original full page illustrations. #Books #Tolkien #Gaelic
A hardback copy of “A’ Hobat” by JRR Tolkien. The wraparound dust jacket reproduces Tolkien’s original cover image of green forests with snow capped grey and black mountains rising behind.
The title page of the book, noting it has been translated into Gaelic by Moray Watson and published in 2025 by Evertype.
A sample of pages open. On the left is Gaelic text. On the right page is Tolkien’s colourful image of Hobbiton in The Shire.
Glimpses of two more open pages. On the left Gaelic text, on the right Tolkien’s black and white drawing of Beorn’s hall.
