I love that we start out with Lucy’s perspective. Her kindness, compassion, gentleness and fragility present her as soft (which is not a negative word! It’s beautiful), while simultaneously her character stands firm on her lived experience. Unlike her brother, Edmund, who’s overtaken by pride and the desire to present himself as mature by those around him, forsaking his sisters heart.

In Edmund’s experience with the White Witch, he indulges the flesh while easily slipping into the lure of her deception. His sister Lucy shook herself up from Tumnus’ attempt to trick her, which then led him into confession. Both siblings fall for the allure, but Lucy shows a natural ability to shake herself off and self direct back to her task (which was getting back home). Edmund reluctantly was dismissed.

I want to discuss the professor. His wisdom shines in his ability to gaze at truth through the lens of logistics. “Either your sister is telling lies, or she is mad, or she is telling the truth” (52) is a compelling quote aimed to challenge the readers perspective on truth. The professors willingness to defend Lucy and challenge her oldest two siblings paints him as a likable character who champions for truth.
