The perspective shifts from Bilbo to his much-younger cousin Frodo Baggins (Elijah Wood). Following some exposition that sets up the current state of affairs in Middle-earth, we return to Bilbo’s 111th birthday celebration in the Shire. Because the three-volume binding was so widely distributed, the work is often referred to as the Lord of the Rings " trilogy". In a letter to the poet W. H. Auden, who famously reviewed the final volume in 1956, [57] Tolkien himself made use of the term "trilogy" for the work [T 14] though he did at other times consider this incorrect, as it was written and conceived as a single book. [T 15] It is often called a novel; however, Tolkien objected to this term as he viewed it as a heroic romance. [T 16]Masters, Tim (30 April 2009). "Making Middle-earth on a shoestring". BBC News.

Persuaded by his publishers, he started "a new Hobbit" in December 1937. [10] After several false starts, the story of the One Ring emerged. The idea for the first chapter ("A Long-Expected Party") arrived fully formed, although the reasons behind Bilbo's disappearance, the significance of the Ring, and the title The Lord of the Rings did not come until the spring of 1938. [10] Originally, he planned to write a story in which Bilbo had used up all his treasure and was looking for another adventure to gain more; however, he remembered the Ring and its powers and thought that would be a better focus for the new work. [10] As the story progressed, he brought in elements from The Silmarillion mythology. [12]
