Story4.5 out of 5 stars 57
In this work, David C. Downing explores the breadth of Lewis's writing, introducing us to the context of Christian mysticism in Lewis's day and the writers who most influenced him. Lewis's critique of mysticism is instructive to us in this day of eclectic religious thought. Exploring Lewis's sense of the mystical can help us safeguard ourselves from false mysticism, even as it opens the way to a full experience of God's presence - the "region of awe."

This book is the exact one I hoped existed! I was wanting someone to flesh out "Christian Mysticism" and that is exactly what the author does so well! My personal opinion was that CS Lewis was a mystic through and through :)
