Description

In this profoundly intimate and unflinching account, C.S. Lewis grapples with the raw, disorienting experience of widowhood following the death of his wife. Initially written in private notebooks, these reflections capture the immediate aftermath of loss, a period marked by doubt, anger, and a questioning of deeply held beliefs. Lewis navigates the "mad midnight moments" of grief, confronting his own frailties and the agonizing absence of everyday joys. Ultimately, this powerful exploration transcends personal sorrow, offering a universal meditation on love, loss, and the enduring search for faith amidst suffering.
