May 2020: Metaphor at its finest. Motifs that stood out during re-read: clarity and identity, justice and divinity, possession and love.

'Are the gods not just?'
'Oh no, child. What would become of us if they were? But come and see.'


Aug 2018: Extraordinary and strange, how C.S. Lewis can write a story that is far removed from my life context and yet remains so resonant. Till We Have Faces is an examination of, among many other things, someone lost and then found, the sometimes silent omniscience of God, and the world’s rejection of grace it cannot understand with human love.
