A Shiver of Wonder: A Life of C. S. Lewis Derick Bingham
Book DescriptionHe was an atheist who became the best-selling Christian author in history. He was an intellectual snob who was transformed into a man who had a mind and heart awake to holiness. He had no children, but few men in history have been so deeply loved by children. He was a mirror reflecting another Face. He was an Oxford Don and a Cambridge Professor. He was an expert in Medieval and Renaissance English who gripped the imagination of millions through his wartime broadcasts of Christian truth for the BBC. These broadcasts later became his famous book, Mere Christianity, through which more people were converted to faith than through any other Christian book in the 20th Century. His involvement in Oxford University?s Socratic Club became the highlight of many a student?s University days. He was C. S. Lewis; and his name is synonymous with legendary kindness, intellectual rigour, a love of nature and perhaps his greatest creations, Aslan and the land......

Kenneth Tynan: A Life Dominic Shellard
Book DescriptionKenneth Tynan (1927?1980) lived one of the most intriguing theater lives of his century. A brilliant writer, critic, and agent provocateur, he made friends or enemies of nearly every major actor, playwright, impresario, and movie mogul of the 1950s, ?60s, and ?70s. He wrote for the Evening Standard, the Observer, and the New Yorker; served eleven years as dramaturg for Britain?s newly formed National Theatre, and spent his final years in Los Angeles. This biography offers the first complete appraisal of Tynan?s powerful contribution to post-war British theater, set against the context of the fifties, sixties, and seventies and his own turbulent life. Dominic Shellard highlights Tynan?s writings of 1952?1963, when the coruscating young critic came to prominence. He discusses how Tynan took his place at the vanguard of the new realist movement, helped to establish subsidized theater, fought censorship, and assisted in the......
