C.S. Lewis, Poetry, and the Great War 1914-1918

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book presents a realistic account of the early years of C.S. Lewis as revealed in "Spirits in Bondage" and its surrounding events. It calls for a reappraisal of Lewis himself, not as a "soldier-poet" but as a young, ruthless and ambitious would-be academic, using others-his father, his university, his mistress-to further his own ends.
