On June 3rd at 7 p.m., Westdale library will be hosting a programme entitled “The Man Who Created Narnia: the Faith and Fiction of C.S.Lewis.”
“C.S.Lewis is known as one of the most popular writers of the twentieth century. One of his best-loved works is The Chronicles of Narnia, recently turned into three movies. But not everyone is aware of how Lewis’ own spiritual journey is reflected in the shaping of the Narnia stories. John Bowen has loved Narnia since he first read the stories in his 30’s. As a professor at Wycliffe College, an Anglican seminary in the University of Toronto, from 1997 till 2013, he has taught Master’s level courses on Lewis, and is the author of The Spirituality of Narnia: The Deeper Magic of C.S.Lewis (2007).”
