A collection of essays by a career C . S . Lewis scholar on the occasion of the fiftieth anniversary of Lewis’s death.C. S. Lewis scholar Don W. King has kept a critical eye on the work by and about Lewis for four decades. Now, on the occasion of the fiftieth anniversary of Lewis’s death, King has put together a collection of his essays and critical reviews organized around four areas. The first deals mainly with what will perhaps be Lewis’s longest lasting legacy—his Chronicles of Narnia. The second deals with Lewis’s poetry, a neglected area of his work. The third focuses on Lewis and the two women poets with whom he had lasting relationships: ruth Pitter and Joy Davidman. (Lewis and Davidman eventually fell in love and later married, twice.) The fourth offers a critical perspective on the way in which critical interest in Lewis has developed over the last thirty years.Essays and reviews include:Narnia and the Seven Deadly Sins The Wardrobe as Christian Metaphor The Childlike in George Mac Donald and C. S. Lewis Making the Poor Best of Dull Things: C. S. Lewis as Poet C. S. Lewis’s The Quest of Bleheris as Poetic Prose The Poetry of Prose: C. S. Lewis, Ruth Pitter, and Perelandra Fire and Ice: C. S.
