About the book: year / “Have you read “The Lord of the Rings”? I knew it: you have the face of a well-read person. Do you remember - there are such people there - Ents? Tree people are all men who have lost their women. Oh yes, you know what I mean. Well, listen to my story to the end, and you will understand that I could not do otherwise... This is such a call of nature - we, like the Ents, were taken away from our wives and forced to survive. What does this have to do with the Entwives? Good question..."
