Summary
Experience C. S. Lewis's Captivating Transformation from Atheist to Christian
At the end of World War I, young C. S. Lewis was a devout atheist about to begin his studies at Oxford. In the three decades that followed, he would establish himself as one of the most influential writers and scholars of modern times, undergoing a radical conversion to Christianity that would transform his life and his work.
Scholar Harry Lee Poe unfolds these watershed years in Lewis's life, offering readers a unique perspective on his conversion, his friendships with well-known Christians such as J. R. R. Tolkien and Dorothy L. Sayers, and his development from an opponent of Christianity to one of its most ardent defenders.

Profile Avatar Sergio C. Mar 2025

Wonderfully read and written. As a fan of Lewis for his theology as well as Sci-Fi and Fantasy writing, I enjoy knowing more about his life. Often in other biographies, the Inklings are closer to a footnote or the author focuses heavily on the friendship between Lewis and Tolkien to the detriment of the relationships of men like Arthur Greeves, Charles Williams, Hugo Dyson, etc. This biography balances those friendships while also telling us about Lewis' early career before and during the Second World War. I found the tale captivating, and I absolutely will be adding this to my bookshelf.
