Tolkien's Sigurd and Gudrun

How long is my Strange Horizons review of the latest posthumous Tolkien publication? Pretty long.

(Actually it's part of a larger, secret strategy of mine to question the assumptions of SF and F characterisation, which I take to be bound by 'a rather stiffly limitedly consecutive logic of human motivation.' We need a couple more SFF Hamlets, and a couple fewer SFF Luke Skywalkers and Sigurds. Or so I believe ...)
