Image and Imagination

Image and Imagination presents some of C. S. Lewis's finest literary criticism and religious exposition. This selection gathers together forty book reviews-never before reprinted-as well as four major essays which have been unavailable for many decades, and a fifth essay, "Image and Imagination," published for the first time. The essays and reviews substantiate Lewis's reputation as an eloquent and authoritative critic across a wide range of literature, and as a keen judge of contemporary scholarship, while his reviews of The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings will be of additional interest to scholars and students of fantasy.
