Written with love, humility, and faith, this brief but piog� nant volume was first published in 1961 and concerns the death of C. S. Lewis's wife, the American-born poet Joy Davidman. Written in longhand in notebooks that Lewis found in his home, "A Grief Observed" probes the "mad midnight moments" of Lewis's mourning and loss, moments in which he questioned what he had previously believed about life and death, marria� ge, and even God. Lewis writes his statement of faith with precision, humor, and grace. Yet neither is Lewis reluctant to confess his continuing doubts and his awareness of his own human frailty. This is precisely the quality which suggests that "A Grief Observed" may become "among the great devotional books of our age".
