For more than half a century, C.S Lewis's Narnia series has captured the imagination of millions. In C.S Lewis - A Life, Dr Alister McGrath recounts the unlikely legacy of the Oxford don, who spent his days teaching medieval English literature and his nights writing a bestselling fantasy series for children.
To write this biography McGrath studied all of Lewis's correspondence and archival materials in chronological order, so as to illuminate afresh this much-loved author's life. This definitive biography paints a portrait of a deeply original thinker who became an inspiring, though reluctant, prophet for our times.
Accessible and engaging, this is a fascinating portrayal of a creative genius who ...continues to inspire millions of readers around the world.
The recent Narnia films have inspired a resurgence of interest in C. S. Lewis, the Oxford academic, popular theologian and, most famously, creator of the magical world of Narnia - and this authoritative new biography, published to mark the 50th anniversary of Lewis's death, sets out to introduce him to a new generation. Completely up to date with scholarly studies of Lewis, it also focuses on how Lewis came to write the Narnia books, and why they have proved so consistently engaging.
