In 1950, C. S. Lewis published a book his friends and his publisher advised him not to write. The great apologist and major literary critic wrote a children's book called The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe. It actually did well. In fact, it is still in print. Before he finished writing it, he had an idea for a second book, and before the second one was finished, he had an idea for third. Each time, he that the one he was writing was the last, but the ideas kept coming until he had written the seven books that comprise The Chronicles of Narnia. As we gather in Oxford on 6-11 July 2025, we will consider the wonder and the implications for these stories.
