Charles Williams: An Exploration of His Life and WorkPoet, novelist, dramatist, biographer, critic, and theologian, Charles Williams was the author of nearly forty books. Among his close friends were such literary lions as W.H. Auden, Dorothy Sayers, and T.S. Eliot. In this, the first full biography of Williams, Alice Mary Hadfield--a close friend and colleague--provides a sympathetic portrait and sheds new light on the essentially Christian worldview that charged his writing. "Likely to be the definitive biography."--Clyde S. Kilby, Wheaton College |
