S3E16 Advent — Sept 22, 1931 Letter to Arthur Greeves


Listen Later

This letter, written Sept 22, 1931 by a young C. S. Lewis to his closest friend Arthur Greeves, is uniquley timed. It was written during the week in-between the influential conversation Lewis had on Addison's Walk with friends Tolkien and Dyson, and the day of Lewis' conversion to Christ (what has become known as "Sidecar Day"). Not surprisingly, during this week and in this letter to Arthur, Lewis had Sensucht on his mind.
