'Because of the combination of information, understanding and insight on which it is founded, The Magical World of the Inklings is more than outstanding. It is not in the same league with anything else I have come across.' - Owen Barfield The works of J. R. R. Tolkien, C. S. Lewis, Charles Williams and Owen Barfield have had a profound impact on the contemporary world. Together they were The Inklings, a small literary group of friends who set out to explore the ’mythopoeic’ or myth-making element in imaginative fiction. The Magical World of the Inklings reveals how each of these writers created a ’magical world’ which initiated the reader into hidden and powerful realms of the creative imagination.
