5.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent study of the Space Trilogy
The review of April 11, 2010, mischaracterizes Schwartz's fine book. It is not a "commentary," which indicates a verse-by-verse explanation of particular points in a text, but rather a work of scholarship that argues a unified thesis about the literary structure and themes of C. S. Lewis's Space Trilogy. The book is intelligent, even erudite, but at the same time it is...

When I purchased this I thought it included these fabulous books. A commentary to reference while reading them would have been helpful. I was so very disappointed that it was only the commentary that I paid $15.00 for. I recently got my Kindle and was very much looking forward to reading these books with a dictionary on hand!

This review is from: C. S. Lewis on the Final Frontier: Science and the Supernatural in the Space Trilogy (Hardcover)

It is not a "commentary," which indicates a verse-by-verse explanation of particular points in a text, but rather a work of scholarship that argues a unified thesis about the literary structure and themes of C. S. Lewis's Space Trilogy. The book is intelligent, even erudite, but at the same time it is clearly written and accessible to the non-specialist. I'm a university professor who teaches a course on C. S. Lewis, and I would recommend this book highly to my undergraduate students who want a first-rate treatment of the trilogy.

I was so very disappointed that it was only the commentary that I paid $15.00 for. I recently got my Kindle and was very much looking forward to reading these books with a dictionary on hand! Somewhere, packed away in a box because I have limited storage space, are my copies of this Trilogy. I have very fond memories of reading these books so I wanted to read them again with tools on hand to gain more understanding.(I LOVE MY KINDLE!!!) Alas, the books were not included and not yet available on the Kindle. Big, very disappointed sigh...
