520    When poet and writer Joy Davidman began writing letters to
       C. S. Lewis--known as Jack--she was looking for spiritual 
       answers, not love. Love, after all, wasn't holding 
       together her crumbling marriage. Everything about New 
       Yorker Joy seemed ill-matched for an Oxford don and the 
       beloved writer of Narnia, yet their minds bonded over 
       their letters. Embarking on the adventure of her life, Joy
       traveled from America to England and back again, facing 
       heartbreak and poverty, discovering friendship and faith, 
       and against all odds, finding a love that even the threat 
       of death couldn't destroy. In this masterful exploration 
       of one of the greatest love stories of modern times, we 
       meet a brilliant writer, a fiercely independent mother, 
       and a passionate woman who changed the life of this 
       respected author and inspired books that still enchant us 
       and change us. Joy lived at a time when women weren't 
       meant to have a voice--and yet her love for Jack gave them
       both voices they didn't know they had.
