This is the final episode of the The Year of Our Lord, 2024. We are concluding this year with a bookclub discussion of The Place of the Lion  by Charles Williams. Williams was a member of the literary group, The Inklings, and friends with both C. S. Lewis and J. R. R. Tolkien. Prior to meeting these literary giants, Williams published The Place of the Lion and a few other stories. 

In this episode, we discuss The Place of the Lion, the characters, and the “angelic/platonic” beings Williams uses. We also briefly mention the influence he had on both Lewis and Tolkien. 

Enjoy!
