About This Item
From the back cover: "Among C. S. Lewis' greatest works is his Space Trilogy--Out of the Silent Planet, Perelandra, and That Hideous Strength. In this fascinating guide Martha Sammons, author of A Guide Through Narnia, takes the reader on an adventure of discovery as she explores the depths of Lewis' vision. Here is a behind-the-scenes look at why Lewis wrote the Trilogy, the medieval cosmology that informs it, the role of Arthurian legend in That Hideous Strength, the sources for major and minor characters, and countless other fascinating details. Complementing the text are illustrations by award-winning artist Ellie Arnot. Also included are a note on the languages used in the Trilogy, and an index of names and places."
