When poet and writer Joy Davidman began writing letters to C. S. Lewis—known as Jack—she was looking for spiritual answers, not love. Love, after all, wasn’t holding together her crumbling marriage. Everything about New Yorker Joy seemed ill-matched for an Oxford professor and the beloved writer of The Chronicles of Narnia, yet their minds bonded over their letters. Embarking on the adventure of her life, Joy traveled from America to England and back again, facing heartbreak and poverty, discovering friendship and faith, and against all odds, found a love that even the threat of death couldn’t destroy. In this masterful exploration of one of the greatest love stories of modern times, we meet a brilliant writer, a fiercely independent mother, and a passionate woman who changed the life of this respected author. Joy lived at a time when women weren’t meant to have a voice— and yet her love for Jack gave them both voices they didn’t know they had.
Thursday, November 19 12:00 p.m., Dining Room
Becoming Mrs. Lewis is above all a love story—a love of literature and ideas and a love between a husband and wife that, in the end, was not impossible at all. All are welcome to attend the Book Discussion.
Today, you deserve a celebration for all the joy you bring into the world. There are many precious things in life, but few are as special as you! We invite those with an November birthday to lunch in our Dining Room as we celebrate and wish you all a Happy Birthday. Kindly RSVP with the Concierge by Thursday, November 12.
