Inklings of Truth: Essays to Mark the Anniversaries of CS Lewis and JRR Tolkien, introduced and edited by Paul Shrimpton, has now been published by Grandpont House (£8). It comprises four papers from a series of talks hosted by Grandpont House, Oxford in 2013 to mark the 40 and 50 years since Lewis and Tolkien died, in 1963 and 1973 respectively. These papers should be read by anyone who looks back with affection, reverence and some nostalgia for the fine flourishing of the Christian imagination in these two writers in the mid-20th century.
