Published in 1919 under the name Clive Hamilton, these poems were written while Lewis was a student, an Oxford cadet and a soldier in France. They swing between a dark, angry view of a world ruled by cruelty, voiced in pieces like “Satan Speaks” and “French Nocturne”, and a longing for beauty and escape into nature and myth.
Essential for readers of Narnia and Mere Christianity who want to see Lewis before his conversion. Download the free EPUB.
