It isn’t every reader, even every Christian reader, who finds them instantly compelling. Yet they bear many re-readings, and constantly disclose more things to think about. In this brief guide to some of their themes, I don’t intend to try and answer the question of why they are popular — though there are some obvious things to be said. I am more interested in what precisely C S Lewis thought he was doing in writing the books in the first place." Read the whole article here:  Why did C S Lewis write the Chronicles of Narnia? Many things to think about reasons why C.S. Lewis created the world of Narnia. As we (Narnians) know that when mr.

C.S. Lewis' death remembered by step-son Douglas Gresham

Hours before John F. Kennedy's death, the Narnia author, C.S. Lewis died and that was just a week before his 65th birthday. Douglas Gresham, remembers the death of his step-father, C.S. Lewis: according to  Independent.co.uk  , "It was a cruel blow," he says. "Most of us regarded him as a great hope for Western civilisation. But it was only the first blow of the day. Soon any thoughts about Kennedy would go completely out of my mind." A little over an hour later, Gresham was doing homework inside a classroom away from the main school building when an unusual sound alarmed him – the urgent steps of high heels coming down the path outside. "I have no idea why, but I knew immediately it was for me," he says. "Pam, the headmaster's daughter, had come to fetch me. My stepfather had died."
