Oparara Valley
Sir,—lt appears that the ancient Earth Magic is not yet dead. Its inspiration has caused the happy marriage between Tolkien’s “Lord of the Rings” and the enchanting Oparara Valley. Perhaps the Lady Galadriel will lead her Elven Folk to defeat the invasion of those who would destroy her demesne. Long may she reign in those peaceful solitudes, free from the Doom of the Dollar. To use those names in association is sheer genius. We need more of the same inspiration in our materialistic times. — Yours, etc., (Mrs) A. J. FLANAGAN. April 28, 1984.
