A Grief Observed comprises the reflections of the great scholar and Christian apologist C.S. Lewis on the death of his wife after only a few short years of marriage.

Painfully honest in its dissection of his thoughts and feelings, this is a book that details his paralysing grief, bewilderment and sense of loss in simple and moving prose.

This new edition contains the original text of A Grief Observed alongside specially commissione responses to the book and its themes from respected contempoary writers and thinkers: Hilary mantel, Jessica Martin, Jenna Bailey, Rowan Williams, Kate Saunders, Francis Spufford and Maureen Freely.
