The Infamous Mrs. Moore
I found
this article about Lewis' now-infamous relationship
with the widow Moore. A strange relationship it was too.
Many people try to read all sorts of sexual elements into the relationship. But this article, I think, offers a perspective that would demonstrate this to be unlikely.
Read and decide for yourselves.
(Sammy or Willow, if you think this goes better in another forum, feel free to move it.)

Sorry, Arch--I didn't get around to reading it until today. It's pretty fascinating, however; I'm not very well informed about that part of Lewis' life, but the article was an interesting read. I was particularly struck by the observation at the end about the effect this relationship may have had on Lewis' faith; I've lately been reading a lot of literature (for a class last semester, mostly), that really emphasizes penance or (as my classmate put it) "productive suffering."
Thanks for sharing the article!
