A Severe Mercy by Sheldon Vanlauken
A heart-rending love story described by its author as the spiritual autobiography of a love rather than of the lovers about the author's marriage and search for faith.
Vanauken chronicles the birth of a powerful pagan love borne out of the relationship he shares with his wife, Davy, and describes the growth of their relationship and the dreams that they share.
A beloved, profoundly moving account of the author's marriage, the couple's search for faith and friendship with C. S. Lewis, and a spiritual strength that sustained Vanauken after his wife's untimely death. Replete with 18 letters from C.S. Lewis, A Severe Mercy addresses some of the universal questions that surround faith--the existence of God and the reasons behind tragedy.
Gateway to Heaven, The Glittering Illusion, and Beneath the Mercy, the sequel to A Severe Mercy, were all written by Sheldon Vanauken (1914-1996).
