Jag har länge haft en känsla av att jag inte kommer gillar C.S. Lewis skrivstil, och därför har jag skjutit upp att läsa hans böcker. Man borde ju gilla nån som är så klok och legendarisk. Men magkänslan stämde. Som den för det mesta gör. Jag tyckte boken var tråkig. Två bra saker skrev han, och därav två generösa stjärnor.

Mycket intressant bok om C S Lewis väg till Jesus. Lite svårläst ibland men väldigt ärlig!

Really descriptive of his spiritual journey, deeply insightful into the mechanisms of spiritual development. Seen from his perspective as a searcher of truth and with fulfillment in Christ.
