xiii, 152 p. : ill.; 18 cm.
Summary
"This compelling account of the Narnia novels unlocks their Christian symbolism and explores the moral and spiritual wisdom that C. S. Lewis intended to convey. From the introduction: 'I want to capture something of what Lewis is trying to do in communicating - to a world that frequently thinks is knows what faith is - the character, the feel, of a real experience of surrender in the face of absolute incarnate love'. " --Publisher description.
