Lewis to offer a detailed examination of \u003ci\u003eTill We Have Faces\u003c\/i\u003e, Peter J. Schakel's new book is also the first to explore the tension between reason and imagination that significantly shaped Lewis's thinking and writing. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Schakel begins with a close analysis of \u003ci\u003eTill We Have Faces\u003c\/i\u003e which leads the reader through the plot, clarifying its themes as it discusses structure, symbols, and allusions. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e The second part of the book surveys Lewis's works, tracing the tension between reason and imagination. In the works of the thirties and forties reason is in the ascendant; from the early fifties on, in works such as the Chronicles of Narnia, there is an increased emphasis on imagination -- which culminates in the fine \"myth retold,\" \u003ci\u003eTill We Have Faces\u003c\/i\u003e. Imagination and reason are reconciled, finally, in works of the early sixties such as \u003ci\u003eA Grief Observed\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eLetters to Malcolm\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Peter J.
