From the Back Cover
Step into the world of fantasy: from the famed Lancelot’s adventures to the enchanting woodland that becomes the home of the Queen of Drum, Narrative Poems showcases Lewis’s deep love for storytelling and wonder. While Lewis is often known for his fiction and philosophical nonfiction, he was also a talented poet and often said that the narrative poem was his favorite form of literary expression. This collection of four longer poems—“Dymer,” “Launcelot,” “The Nameless Isle,” and “The Queen of Drum”—reveals Lewis’s passion for fantasy that shaped his beloved works of fiction.
