The current issue of The Covenant Companion features several articles related to the book and its author, C.S. Lewis, including one by former North Park University Professor of English Daniel de Roulet who relates the book to modern conflicts. Bob Smietana says C.S. Lewis wasn’t the person some evangelicals may think. And, Catherine Barsotti and Robert Johnston review the film.
