I recently finished A Grief Observed and The Abolition of
Man. Both were pretty short. If I had to pick one, I think I liked A Grief
Observed better. Lewis wrote this book
when his wife died, and he shares his feelings and thoughts. What I liked the most about this book was how
real it was: his pain was definitely evident.
Sometimes he expressed anger, sometimes sadness, sometimes
confusion. It was real and it was
touching.
The Abolition of Man had a completely different feel. It was very rational; there wasn’t any of the
raw emotion found in A Grief Observed (understandably). It was a good book, and he definitely made
some very interesting points.
