The Dark Tower and Other Stories
of C.S. Lewis, Walter Hooper (Editor)
Description
ââOf course,â said Orfieu, âthe sort of time-travelling you read about in booksâtime-travelling in the bodyâis absolutely impossible.ââSo begins The Dark Tower, a captivating novella that continues the adventures of Dr. Elwin Ransom after the events of Out of the Silent Planet, the first novel is Lewisâs Space Trilogy. In Orfieuâs office at Cambridge University, five men gather to witness the breach of space-time through the chronoscope, a telescope that looks not just into another world, but into another time. Also included are "After Ten Years," Lewisâs retelling of Menelausâs battle for Helen, "The Man Born Blind," the story of a man who after gaining sight for the first time in his life learns about the relative nature of reality, and three other short stories. A necessary anthology for fans of futuristic fiction, this collection cements Lewisâs place in the science fiction canon. âA superb storyteller.â âAnthony Burgess
