This well-loved copy of C.S. Lewis’s “The Four Loves” bears the gentle marks of a book that has been read and cherished. Published in 1960, this work explores the philosophical and theological underpinnings of the different types of love – affection, friendship, romantic love, and the love of God. Lewis, one of the 20th century’s most renowned Christian apologists, brings his signature blend of reason and imagination to this enduring exploration of one of life’s most profound experiences.
As an Oxford don and a member of the Inklings literary group (which included J.R.R. Tolkien), Lewis had a deep appreciation for the power of language and storytelling. In “The Four Loves,” he draws from classical and medieval sources, as well as his own experiences, to examine love’s complexities and its role in the human experience. This work remains a touchstone for readers seeking to understand the many facets of love, and its well-worn state is a testament to its enduring relevance and the deep connections it has forged with generations of readers.
