Lewis was a soldier, student, and atheist. Newly returned from the front lines of World War I, Lewis took up residence with the mother of a friend killed in combat and started to make a life for himself in Oxford. At the urging of Mrs. Moore, whose friendship had a huge effect on him, Lewis kept for five years a detailed diary of his day-to-day life—giving us a window into the inspirations and development of a man whose theology would eventually have great influence on the Christian world. In \u003ci\u003eAll the Road Before Me\u003c\/i\u003e, we accompany Lewis through his days as a young writer and as a young man, determining his place in the world. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"A disarming self-portrait of Lewis as sensual, self-assured atheist and clandestine family man.\"—\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Houghton Mifflin Harcourt","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47022662156528,"sku":"9780156027960","price":27.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780156027960_p0.jpg?v=1763658177","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780156027960","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
