Each episode is well worth the wait. I have learnt so much from them, been constantly surprised, informed and entertained. Like Mark Lewisohn, you are building a great history of music that people will enjoy for decades to come. Take care of yourself.

My copy ends with On Horseback, which was, I think, the b-side to In Dulce Jubilo, his Christmas hit. It rounds this great album off nicely.

Front cover of IRELAND IN THE LIFE AND WORK OF C.S. LEWIS, by David Clare, which features a picture of Dunluce Castle in Co. Antrim (said to be the model for Cair Paravel from Lewis's THE CHRONICLES OF NARNIA).
Back cover of IRELAND IN THE LIFE AND WORK OF C.S. LEWIS, by David Clare, which features a summary of the book's content, the author's bio, and the following two endorsements:
“A gloriously profound engagement with CS Lewis. David Clare has researched meticulously and written a deeply nuanced and insightful book, scholarly, heartening and humane, illuminating of the man and of his work, and restoring him to the fullness of his Irishness in all its complexity.”
-Lucy Caldwell, award-winning, Belfast-born author
“In this uniquely sophisticated study, Clare shows the centrality of Ireland to C.S. Lewis’s thought and writing while refusing monolithic conceptions of national identity: Ireland was for Lewis a topological and linguistic mosaic whose lineaments his writing endlessly redrew and reconfigured. This book breaks new ground by examining Lewis’s afterlives on stage and screen and by tracing a thread of religious transcendence which Lewis shares with fellow Northern visionaries like Van Morrison, Stewart Parker, and Christina Reid. Tolerant of difference and opposed to all forms of jingoism and colonialism, the figure that emerges from this important and nuanced study is a salutary one for our times.”
-Dr. James Ward, University of Ulster-Coleraine
I'm very excited that my new book, IRELAND IN THE LIFE AND WORK OF C.S. LEWIS, has just been published by Palgrave Macmillan! The book is quite dear (!) but there is a 25% discount going till tomorrow (21/8). Just use the discount code SNB2S25 at the following site:
