Beschreibung

'C.S. Lewis: A Biography of Friendship' is a fascinating and insightful plunge into the life of a literary legend through the friends he keep closest.

Through collecting previously unpublished research, interviews and insider knowledge, Colin Duriez has compiled a sparkling biography of C.S. Lewis by studying his closest friends, family and the famous literary society, the Inklings. These key relationships helped to influence his academic thoughts, his personal beliefs and his world-renowned books. So what can we learn from these people?

- What kind of impact did his life-long friend, Arthur Greeves, have on the legend?
- How influential were J.R.R. Tolkien and the other members of the 'Inklings' on his career and life?
- Why did he move in with a single mother twice his age, Janie Moore, and live with her until her death?
- Why did he marry so late?
- What about his alcoholic and gifted brother?

This wonderfully produced book offers a striking and tangible image of the Oxford professor, children's author and out-spoken Christian. It's a joy to read and an ideal gift to Lewis fanatics.
