Exploring themes of struggle and existential reflection, this collection features poetry from a young C. S. Lewis, freshly returned from World War I. Comprising three sections, the work showcases varied styles and rhythms, reflecting the author's pre-Christian worldview. Encouraged by his tutor, Lewis's early foray into poetry marks a significant departure from his later prose works. The title, inspired by Milton's Paradise Lost, hints at the philosophical and spiritual undertones prevalent throughout the poems, making this debut both unique and revealing of Lewis's formative thoughts.
