C.S. LEWIS: THE MAN BEHIND NARNIA

Beatrice Gormley

Paperback

Step through the other side of the wardrobe and meet the creator of The Chronicles of Narnia--the man whose rich imagination and deep faith made this fantasy series a favorite for generations. This biography, originally published in 1998 as C. S. Lewis: Christian and Storyteller, has been completely reformatted and now includes more than 50 photographs. It tells the story of C. S. Lewis's life and work, from his boyhood in Belfast, Ireland, where he and his brother created their first imaginary world in an attic hideaway, to Lewis's adult years as a renowned scholar and beloved author. Drawing on her extensive research of Lewis's books, letters, and diaries, Beatrice Gormley paints a fresh and illuminating picture of Lewis, one that explores how the many facets of Lewis's life reflected his deep and powerful experience of God.
