Synopsis
As one of the most creative intellectuals of the twentieth century, C. S. Lewis transcended all literary, philosophical, and religious boundaries. A world-renowned scholar of medieval literature at Oxford and Cambridge Universities, he wrote and lectured in such clear, direct language that ordinary people were able to fully comprehend the truths he extolled. The prolific author of many classic masterpieces-including The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe, soon to be released as a feature movie and one of several volumes in The Chronicles are Narnia-he also lived a life that was as compelling as his work.
Not a Tame Lion: The Spiritual Legacy of C. S. Lewis and The Chronicles of Narnia offers a clear view of the character of this extraordinarily gifted man. Lewis believed that his sharp mind and rich imagination were to be accompanied by a sense of responsibility to the wider world. Thus this volume demonstrates why, two generations after his death, Lewis continues to be numbered among our best-selling authors and most influential thinkers.
