"These are C. S. Lewis' diaries from 1922 - 1927. Nothing tremendously exciting here, just the slow steady ruminations of one of the most brilliant minds of the 20th century in it's youth. C. S. Lewis was an agnostic during these years, living in rural Oxford in a very strange domestic situation. His diaries are full of the books he is reading (and sometimes writing), drinks in pubs with friends and family, his dreams, arguments and conversations with friends like Owen Barfield, Arthur Greaves, and his brother Warren Lewis, forays into the surrounding countryside, as well as holidays in Cornwall and Ireland; a meandering, literary, semi-rustic life which seems very appealing. In a perfect world, the BBC would have made these diaries into a short television series in the late 1970s / early 1980s (they weren't actually published until the early 1990s). Geoffrey Burgon would have written the music, and it would have been filmed on location in Oxfordshire (you know that idiosyncrasy of British TV from that period where interior scenes are shot in video, and outdoor scenes are shot on film? Perfect.) I think maybe Judi Dench could have played Mrs Moore, Simon Jones would be Warnie; I'm not sure who to cast as Jack, maybe Michael Jayston? But I digress"
"Lewis is without a doubt one of my favorite authors. His insight and wisdom have had a remarkable impact on my worldview and have more than assisted me in pursuit of a wholistic theology. Nonetheless, his diary is a hard and often mundane read. It is redemptive in that, at times, it opens a window to view what you otherwise might have missed about Lewis."
"Never intended for publication, this collected diary chronicles Lewis in his pre-Christian graduate school years. Only a true C.S. Lewis freak would love it, but if you already own most of his work you should definitely add this to your collection. It fills in the gaps of "Surprised by Joy" and stands as a rebuke to any would-be intellectuals. The volume of work this man could churn out in a day was staggering, and he still had time to take long walks and go to the pub."
