C.S. Lewis Books receive new Cover Designs

Monday, April 6th, 2009

A few weeks ago I noticed that some of the C.S. Lewis books were getting new cover art on Amazon.com.  I ignored it at first, but I have seen it reported on in a number of places and thought it would be good to alert readers of this website about them as well.

Now, some sites are reporting that there are 9 books receiving new covers, whereas the official C.S. Lewis book website says “Collect all 10 beautiful new editions of C.S. Lewis’s greatest works.”  I’m doing some digging to find out if it is, in fact, 10 books receiving the new cover art.

‘Best of C.S. Lewis,’ 5-week course, scheduled at church

Saturday, January 8th, 2005

St. Charles the Martyr Episcopal Church will host a five-week course entitled “The Best of C.S. Lewis: Part Two.”

The course is open to the public and attendees need not have attended part one last year.

C.S. Lewis, who died in 1963, was a scholar at Oxford and Cambridge Universities. During World War II he was heard weekly on the BBC radio as a voice of comfort and encouragement. Today his books have sold more copies than any other single Christian writer. Among his most famous books are “Mere Christianity,” “The Screwtape Letters” and “The Chronicles of Narnia.” Attendees in this course will be reading and discussing “The Weight of Glory” and “The Great Divorce.”

The course will be guest taught by Mary Ann Lind and will meet at 7 Wednesday evenings, Jan. 12, 26, Feb. 2, 16 and 23 in the church fellowship hall. Books may be purchased the first evening of the class.
