"The Story of C. S. Lewis"

"The Story Behind the Movie Shadowlands"

The Chronicles of Narnia, written by C. S. Lewis many years ago, are still loved by children. But who really was "Jack" Lewis - as he preferred to be called? Who was this writer of fantasies? What made him internationally famous? What makes his books still popular even though he has been dead nearly 40 years? Was he really like the man Anthony Hopkins portrays in the movie Shadowlands?

The real C. S. Lewis did marry an American, Joy Gresham, late in life. Their love was intense but brief. Joy died of cancer within a few short years. Nearly crushed by her death, C. S. Lewis wrote (anonymously at first) A Grief Observed. That book still brings comfort to people today.
