Overview
The fanciful novels of Charles Williams have long fascinated a rather elite reading public - T.S. Eliot, W.H. Auden and C.S. Lewis for example, were among his great admirers. But those books - which include The Place of the Lion, Descent into Hell, and All Hallows' Eve - are also dense and perplexing, and even the writer's fondest devotees have found the meanings of his fiction elusive. Here at last is a clear and informed guide to the complexities and rich rewards of Charles Williams's novels.Synopsis
