Description
In his time C.S. Lewis was highly acclaimed for his literary genius and his powerful defence of the Christian faith. His writings remain bestsellersand enormously popular around the world; they have been translated into many languages and continue to delight and captivate readers of all ages.'Selected Books' is the opportunity to own a library of some of the most loved C.S. Lewis titles in one volume. These titles demonstrate the breadth and variety of Lewis's Christian writing – from reasoned argument to engaging allegory.In 'The Pilgrim's Regress', Lewis's first fictional work, he explains in allegory the elusive experience he calls Joy and its part in his conversion. 'Prayer: Letters to Malcolm' was Lewis's last book, in which he corresponds with an imaginary friend on various aspects of prayer. In his 'Reflections on the Psalms', Lewis shares thoughts on the Psalms which he knew almost by heart through daily attendance at his college chapel, and in 'The Abolition of Man', he reflects on the teaching of morality. Finally, 'Till We Have Faces', described by Lewis as the 'favourite of all my books', retells and interprets the story Cupid and Psyche.For anyone who has known and enjoyed 'The Chronicles of Narnia' or the film 'Shadowlands' based on his life, this collection will be a wonderful celebration of C.S. Lewis's brilliance.
