C.S. Lewis is remembered today as a fiction writer and author of the widely popular The Chronicles of Narnia, a series of seven children’s fantasy novels. Throughout his lifetime he wrote more than 30 books, many of which speak on Christian themes.
‘On Being Human’ by C.S Lewis is incredibly unique and fascinating as it deals with both the physical and the spiritual realm as compared to one another.
Angelic minds, they say, by simple intelligence Behold the Forms of nature. They discern Unerringly the Archtypes, all the verities Which mortals lack or indirectly learn.
‘After Prayers, Lie Cold’ contemplates the soul’s separation from the body, embracing death with a serene readiness for the afterlife.
‘The Country of the Blind’ explores the divide between those enlightened by truth and a society blinded by its denial of the divine.
Hard light bathed them-a whole nation of eyeless men,
Dark bipeds not aware how they were maimed. A long
Process, clearly, a slow curse,
Drained through centuries, left them thus.
