“Lewis at his very best is sane, openhearted, eloquent and surprising, articulately expounding a set of traditional resources for dealing with spiritual struggle while managing to convey a sense of freshness and delight in discovery. This collection will be a mine of solid insight for many. And it may even prompt us to wonder what we are losing in forgetting the art of letter-writing.”

Rowan Williams
