C.S. Lewis through the Shadowlands

After re-watching Shadowlands, I obtained the book covering the love story between C.S. Lewis and Joy Davidson, helpfully providing a biographical background of each. The film also had dramatic license regarding their time together (including editing out one of her sons!). Both are good in their own ways, though the book (already short) could have cut out a bit of author quotations. The religious beliefs is less convincing than the love story. To me, God and religion is a sort of poetic metaphor and I am not an author of symbolic fiction.
