In Plain Sight Behind a Wardrobe Door: Essays on C. S. Lewis’s Chronicles of Narnia
In Plain Sight Behind a Wardrobe Door brings together insights from a lifetime of thoughtful and influential scholarship by Joe R. Christopher on C. S. Lewis's The Chronicles of Narnia. Featuring essays spanning more than fifty years, this volume highlights Christopher's vision of the Narniad as a carefully wrought secondary world infused with fairy tales, romance traditions, myth, medieval storytelling, and Christian thought.
Showcasing Christopher's meticulous precision and quiet wit, these essays explore Narnia's timelines and landscapes, its use of fantasy conventions, and its moral logic, while also tracing Lewis's connections to writers such as Dante, Spenser, George MacDonald, and J. R. R. Tolkien. In one section focused on The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, Christopher addresses some of the most contested and enduring questions in Narnian criticism with balance, clarity, and historical depth.
This collection invites readers to rediscover Narnia as a layered imaginative world that rewards patient, attentive reading. Accessible yet deeply informed, In Plain Sight Behind a Wardrobe Door will appeal to devoted fans of Narnia, as well as to teachers, students, and general readers interested in fantasy, myth, and the Inklings.
