For those who seek allegory, it must be maddening. {It must be allegory! Of course Frodo is Christ! - or is Gollum Christ?} for those whose grasp on reality is so tenuous that they crave ever-increasing doses of "realism" in their reading, it offers nothing - unless, perhaps, a shortcut to the looney bin.
