Charles Williams

The Acknowledgements page of my novel states my debt to the poet and novelist Charles Williams, friend of CS Lewis and JRR Tolkien, and like them a member of the Inklings reading and discussion group. I discuss his last two novels, Descent into Hell (1937) and All Hallows' Eve (1945), in a short essay for Neglected Books – here.
