Postby thepopularkid » June 13th, 2006, 7:03 pm

I'm giving a presentation about Lewis and i was wondering if he incoperated his life in any of his stories. So far i've only read the great divorce and the lion, the witch and the wardrobe. Any information or quotes will be extremely benificial. thankss

I think the first step might be to read something about his life, Surprised by Joy, for instance.
