Beskrivelse
University Press returns with another short and captivating portrait of one of history's most compelling figures, C.S. Lewis.
Clive Staples Lewis may have looked like an ordinary, absent-minded professor as he strolled the halls of Oxford University in wrinkled slacks, tattered jackets, and worn-out shoes. Yet he is one of the most beloved authors of modern times. Best known today for his masterpiece, The Chronicles of Narnia, Lewis was a prolific writer, speaker, and Christian apologist.
A man of exceptional intelligence, empathy, and wit, Lewis dazzled his readers, became friends with literary greats like Tolkien and Yeats, and achieved his share of fame and fortune. Yet he was not immune to heartache, grief, and loss. The premature death of his beloved wife shook him to the core, but in his later years he was able to connect with audiences in a more deeply personal way.
This short book tells the intensely human story of a man who changed the world in a way that no one else could.
