Dear Readers:
I am looking for reviewers of the following books for Sehnsucht: the C. S. Lewis Journal. I am particularly interested in hearing from scholars who have previously published academic works on the Inklings, and who do not have a conflict of interest with their book/author of choice. Please contact me if you have those credentials and can write a review sometime between now and the end of March.
I am also interested in hearing about other brand-new books related to C.S. Lewis studies (of course, I have a list of others that have already been assigned).
Thank you.

Both the Tolkien by preference as erstwhile translator of most of Beowulf myself and as editor of modern Arthurian poetry.

I’m not volunteering to review anything–not enough time–but I own seven of the books you list and there are other titles in your list that I will put down on a hoped-for category. It seems to me that this last year has been an incredibly rich year in Inkling studies. Two important biographies (of Williams and Davidman), collections of Lewis’s and Davidman’s poetry, as well as interpretive criticism. An exciting time to be involved, to whatever degree, in the field!

“Beowulf and the Fall of Arthur”?! And all this time I’ve been blaming Mordred!

I am only the most slightly published of scholars, but if a need still exists for the Tolkien, Williams, or Fisher books, I would be available and interested.

Sorina! I’d like to review one… in the Spring of 2017. This fall I’m dissertating, defending, and making a market run!
