"If wit and wisdom, style and scholarship are requisites to passage through the pearly gates, Mr. Lewis will be among the angels."--"The New Yorker" One of the leading religious thinkers of his time, C.S. Lewis believed in the absolute logic of Christianity and faith, writing books, letters, and essays demonstrated the immutability of religion in his life. This collection showcases the Christian themes that provided the foundation for his philosophy, inspiring literature that was sometimes whimsical, often provocative, and always emotionally compelling. "Lewis's remorseless pursuit of clarity, his intense moral concern, [and] the peculiar hue of muth, faerie, and Eden which informs all his work...these are here, and in proportion to how one would find them if one were to read every work Lewis ever published."--"The New York Times Book Review""" C.
