Über diesen Titel

Von der hinteren Coverseite

Why does his writing remain so popular?

As an Oxford scholar, Christian apologist, and author of the Chronicles of Narnia, C. S. Lewis wrote prolifically in many genres, covering a wide spectrum of topics. His soaring imagination is anchored in a unifying concept of who God is, who we are as God's fallen creatures, the destiny of humankind, and the need for redemption and perfection in Christ.

There is nothing in literature which does not, in some degree, percolate into life. - C. S. Lewis, "The Allegory of Love"
