For the last few years I’ve had the Best of Intentions of doing a CS Lewis-themed week, set between November 22nd and November 29th, the anniversaries of his death and birth, respectively. That didn’t happen, but this year — it shall! I was given extra incentive this year because Pints with Jack, a Lewisian podcast I listen to, is hosting “C.S. Lewis Reading Day” on November 29th, Jack’s birthday. The current plan is to post 2-3 Lewis-related reviews between now and the 29th, and then on the 29th post some of my favorite Lewisian quotes. One of the reviews will be a new title (The Pilgrim’s Regress, from Mount Doom), and the other two are re-reads for me. I’ll also post some bookish reflections inspired by questions in The Reading Life, a collection of Jack’s essays on literature and reading. There’ll be other stuff mixed in, of course — a review for Feminism against Progress is in the works, I’m halfway through Hitler’s American Friends, and I’m steadily working on the ol’ TBR.
