The perennial classic: this intimate journal chronicling the Narnia author's experience of grief after his wife's death has consoled readers for half a century with its 'sensitive and eloquent' magic (Hilary Mantel) 'An intimate, anguished account of a man grappling with the mysteries of faith and love ... Elegant and raw ... A powerful record of thought and emotion experienced in real time.' Guardian 'Raw and modern ...

  • C.S.Lewis Paperback: A Grief Observed

    A Grief Observed: Very descriptive and well intentioned. Will most likely help those who MAY be confused or those who need to be better involved in why they are suffering. This author has a brilliant way with words.

  • A light in the darkness of grief.

    I like it a lot as CS Lewis helps to cope with the awfulness of grief, and helps to put it in perspective at what is often a very difficult time. Doesn't take it away but the analysis is helpful.
