Description

The Fellowship: A Literary Lives of the Inklings For three decades, a group of writers and intellectuals met regularly to discuss literature, religion, and ideas. This literary club, known as the Inklings, had a profound impact on modern times. The Fellowship offers the first complete account of the lives and works of its most significant members. The book explores the complex and often contradictory lives of C.S. Lewis, J.R.R. Tolkien, Owen Barfield, and Charles Williams. From their personal struggles to their literary achievements, this extraordinary group rewrote the cultural history of modern times. Through their discussions, readings, and philosophical debates, they created new forms of fiction, developed groundbreaking ideas, and shaped the course of Christian literature. Through a detailed and engaging narrative, The Fellowship sheds light on the inner workings of this influential group, revealing the affections, vexations, and intellectual passions that drove them.
