A Grief Observed by C. S. Lewis was written after his wife’s tragic death as a way of surviving the “mad midnight moments” ?This book is his honest reflection on the fundamental issues of life, death, and faith in the midst of loss. ?This is a beautiful and unflinching record of how even a stalwart believer can lose all sense of meaning in the universe, and how he can gradually regain his bearings.

Invaluable as an insight into the grieving process just as much as it is as an exploration of religious doubt,?A Grief Observed?will continue to offer its consoling insights to a huge range of readers, as it has for over fifty years.
