C. S. Lewis

Essay Collection and Other Short Pieces

By: C. S. Lewis

This is an extensive collection of short essays and other pieces by C. S. Lewis that have been brought together in one volume for the first time. As well as his many books, letters, and poems, Lewis also wrote a great number of essays and shorter pieces on various subjects. He wrote extensively on Christian theology and the defense of faith but also on various ethical issues and on the nature of literature and storytelling. In this essay collection we find a treasure trove of Lewis' reflections on diverse topics.

An absolute must listen. CS Lewis continues to astound and amaze.

You will not be disappointed. This is rich, diverse, deep, holy, contemplative, fantastic, original and mind bending. A must read for any CSL fan.

Love this book

This is one of my favorite C.S. Lewis collections. Well worth the price of a credit.

An intellectual seeker of truth

That is what comes to my mind listening (or reading)
C.S. Lewis. His writtings are like an internal conversation trying to make sense of arguments he creates or are important to him. Obviously topics of God, religion, theology, morality, etc are central to a big part of his writtings. I am a fan because he is constantly making this argument and looking for the truth, and that is the only way to learn and grow.

The audio book itself is very good. The narration is adecuate. The gentlemen reading has a scholarly tone that at times help, but sometimes (few times) is monotonous, however in general his reading is effective and of good quality of tone and volume. This same person also reads other works of the same author.

In conclussion, I enjoyed this audio book.

after many attempts

I have tried a few times to read this collection. I like CS Lewis's, other work, The Chronicles of Narnia, and for the most part I lack his thinking. He's very interesting. I would recommend this book for anyone.

A treasure trove

A " quick and dirty" overview of Lewis' works--in 32 hours :) It took me a month to finish but loved every minute!
