S3E19 Oct 1, 1931 Letter to Arthur Greeves


Listen Later

This letter, written Oct 1, 1931 by a young C. S. Lewis to his closest friend Arthur Greeves, is uniquley timed. It was written 9 days after the influential conversation Lewis had on Addison's Walk with friends Tolkien and Dyson, and four days after his conversion to Christ (what has become known as "Sidecar Day"). Here Lewis tells Arthur more about the conversation and we get a peek into how Lewis found the idea of Myth Becoming Fact, compelling enough to lead him to Christ.
