Meet the Author
Named Professor of Medieval and Renaissance Literature at Cambridge in 1954, C. S. Lewis was known in England as an apologist for and proponent of Christianity, and indeed we see those beliefs alive in this book, e.g., the lion Aslan can be seen as a Christ figure who rescues Narnia from being “always winter, never Christmas.”

Lewis was a close friend of J. R. R. Tolkien, the author of The Lord of the Rings.
Both authors were leading figures in the English faculty at Oxford University and in the informal Oxford literary group known as the “Inklings.”

Fantasy
Fantasy operates in imagined worlds, or is based in the movement between this world and an invented world. A key feature of the fantasy genre is the use of a ‘doorway’ or ‘portal’ that connects the ‘real’ world with the fantasy one, for example, the rabbit hole in Alice in Wonderland, the wardrobe in The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe.

Point of View
The narrator speaks in the third person and focuses on what the children can observe. The narrator is omniscient, and knows the hidden motives and emotions of the characters. The narrator alternates between providing insight into the actions and thoughts of Lucy, Aslan, and Edmund.
