Media Reviews
"As Lingeman tells Lewis's story, it is all too depressing, depressing to the point of 'why bother?' Lingeman might have told it differently, though, because Lewis had plenty of energy and even charm....More important, Lewis's best novels are well worth reading....Lewis's idiosyncratic combination of critical intelligence and humanity comes across far better in his novels than in Lingeman's biography, which often degenerates into a list of events, few of which reveal anything about Lewis's inner life....Who he is is lost in the detail of what he did."
