Images of Salvation in the Fiction of C. S. Lewis

The primary purpose in this book is to be useful to those who are in the process of discovering C. S. Lewis; who have, indeed, read these tales at least once. Charles and Mary Lamb did English a great service in their re-telling of Shakespeare's Tales. In the same style I have tried, first, to remind the readers of the outline of Lewis's stories by re-telling them simply and meaningfully, and then noting, with as little piousness and pretentiousness as possible, the Christian involvements of each story. Each chapter consists of two sections: first, a summary of the Lewis story or stories under discussion and then a section in which parallels are drawn between this story and the life and belief of the Christian.
