C.S. Lewis Books

One of the most well-known Christians of the 20th century, Clive Staples Lewis was a gifted novelist, academic, poet, and Christian apologist. He came to faith later in life at age 32, after reading G.K. Chesterton's The Everlasting Man, and after discussions with friend and colleague J.R.R. Tolkien. His friendship with Tolkien and a larger group of Oxford literaries known as "The Inklings," became the testing ground for many of his now famous books including The Chronicles of Narnia, Mere Christianity, The Screwtape Letters and others. Lewis' numerous written works combined his faith, reason, and story-telling gifts in a way that has seldom been exceeded in modern Christian writing.

Lewis's essays, poems, letters, and other works that will lead you on a reflective journey from Ash Wednesday to Easter Sunday. This wide-ranging gathering of his pieces trumpets the meaning of that "grand miracle," Christ's resurrection. Hardcover with dust jacket.
