Surprised By Joy, the Shape of My Early Life
By C. S. Lewis

This is Lewis’s own story of his early life and spiritual journey from atheism to Christianity. Reading the first three chapters of this book as you begin the Further Up and Further In study will help you see how the author’s life is reflected in his writing. You will recognize how Lewis’ personal experiences crept into the character of Digory inThe Magician’s Nephew and more.
