C. S. Lewis

Arts & Literature

“Not afraid to criticize (when appropriate) C. S. Lewis or his critics, Adey's well-written new work is the fruit of many years of study. He has found what many miss — that through books Lewis `tapped the memory of Western civilization.' Particularly strong are the chapters dealing with Lewis the poet, categorizing the numerous Lewis letters, bringing up to date the ever-increasing number of perspectives on Lewis the writer, and elucidating Lewis as mentor and dreamer. The book is well documented and contains excellent footnotes.”
