Nothing really to add, but I wanted to let you know that I finally came back and read this. The Problem of Susan is one of those subjects I never get tired of reading about. And yes, I heartily agree with what you have to say here.
I like how Pullman dismisses LOTR as a trivial work. *chuckles* Maybe someone should drop the single-volume hardcover on him from a height. Maybe it would seem less trivial then. *grin*
C.S. Lewis spoke about the difference between being childish and childlike many times. Thank you for making it obvious that he never stopped speaking about it in his stories! I love his consistency.
