First edition of this universal meditation on grief, published under the pseudonym N. W. Clerk. Octavo, original gray cloth. Near fine in a near fine dust jacket. Uncommon in this condition.
'A Grief Observed' is a collection of recorded reflections about the passing of C. S. Lewis' wife, Joy Davidman, from cancer in 1960. Published under a pseudonym to avoid connection to the book during his life, the explorations of grief follow themes of faith, doubt, theodicy, and deep love. This incredibly moving contemplation is of great value to our understanding of grief and suffering as ever-loving human beings.
