Finding the Landlord: a Guidebook To C.S. Lewis's Pilgrim's Regress

by Kathryn Ann Lindskoog

Finding the Landlord: a Guidebook To C.S. Lewis's Pilgrim's Regress Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Finding the Landlord opens up Lewis' classic allegory, Pilgrim's Regress, to an audience that may not be familiar with the people and allusions that inhabit the book. Finding the Landlord is the only guidebook available for Pilgrim's Regress. Kathryn Lindskoog is a recognized scholar on Lewis and has published over a dozen books, mainly on creativity and C.S. Lewis. She has shown in the book how the journey in Pilgrim's Regress parallels with Lewis' personal quest to find true joy.
-- "A timely interpretive tool for a new generation of readers of this difficult but rewarding Lewis classic", — Roger Stronstad, editor, The Canadian C. S. Lewis Journal

Synopsis:

The Pilgrim's Regress was C.S. Lewis' first work that reflected his new-found Christian faith. Though recognized by many as one of his best works, Pilgrim's Regress has never gained the popularity of Lewis' other works, mostly because it contains so many references to classic literature and philosophy. Finding the Landlord explains all obscure references in Pilgrim's Regress, as well as chronicling Lewis' near-parallel journey to faith.

Description:

Includes bibliographical references (p. 135-160) and index.
