This study examines how the fictional writings of C.S. Lewis reveal much about the man himself and his quest for psychological and spiritual wholeness. There is new material dealing with C.S. Lewis’ political writings, especially the correspondence between his thriller, That Hideous Strength and George Orwell’s Nineteen Eighty-Four , and some new insights into Lewis’ misogynistic attitudes to women. This book examines all of Lewis’ major works, including The Narnian Chronicles , from a polemical and personal viewpoint. Kath Filmer is the editor of The Victorian Fantasists and Twentieth-Century Fantasists , and also the author of Scepticism and Hope in Twentieth-Century Fantasy .
