The third and final installment of our conversation on The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe enters some interesting territory as Chris, Anika, and Meagan explore Lewis's (inadvertent?) use of Aslan-as-Trickster imagery, proper Narnian politics, and kangaroos. Also witness the precise moment in which the trio realizes that Lewis may have ruined their childhoods.
Works referenced include:
- A Grief Observed by C. S. Lewis
- The Divine Comedy by Dante Alighieri
Outro poetry sample: "On the Circuit" by W. H. Auden
