5.0 out of 5 stars
One of the best books on CSL!,
By Extollager (Mayville, ND United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Imagination and the Arts in C. S. Lewis: Journeying to Narnia and Other Worlds (Hardcover)
This is an exceptionally good discussion of the topics indicated in the title and a fine book for readers who want to think about qualities that make so much of Lewis's writing appealing. Schakel's case for reading the Narnian books in their original publication order (i.e. starting with The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe) would convince CSL himself that the current marketing of the series as beginning with The Magician's Nephew is a mistake). His book will get many readers to look beyond Lewis to music and pictorial art that Lewis cared about. I would rank this with George Sayer's biography JACK as one of my two favorite texts on Lewis.
