CS Lewis my fellow Ulsterman and Christian brother. One of Our True Greats. He is up there with Robert Blair Mayne amongst my countries absolute Best.

You should invest in the Narnia books and read them. I think Narnia is heaven! I was about 85 or so when I bought the set at a garage sale, but before giving them to my great grandchildren I had to read them to make sure they were something I wanted them to read.I am 82 and this year I bought myself a set. Very easy to read, give them a try! 😘 Grannie Lou

Bless him and everyone that has glimpsed a bit of his genius.

I never could read very well... and have read only a handful of books (less than 10) cover to cover. Oddly, I can write like the wind... and it's kind of you to present this work - these folks are people we should know - as 'real people'.

This was wonderfully presented. I hadn't intended to watch it in one sitting but was shocked to find that at midnight, it was over.

A magnificent portrait of a remarkable man! A great production. I found it interesting how easily dismissed as a poet he is presented. He is, in fact a very good poet. Possible years ahead of what we now call poetry, with one exemption: like in his Narnia and science fiction books, his poems are backed by and packed with centuries of the wisdom he collected in his head and in his heart. It may be time to give his poetry another go. To read it as he meant it to be read. With profound understanding. Dymer would rest in better peace if we did. Thank you for sharing this wonderful insight into my favourite writer. Greetings from Australia.

This is just a reposting and rebranding of a video originally published about four years ago by a group called “absolute history“. Seems like a copyright violation to me.
