  The Shoddy Lands - A Journey...

  The Shoddy Lands by C. S. Lewis - When a skeptical professor steps into the mind of a former student’s fiancée, he discovers a surreal landscape shaped by vanity, obsession, and alarming emptiness. The Shoddy Lands is a sharp and unsettling exploration of how our inner worlds reveal far more than we intend. 
  Clive Staples Lewis (1898–1963) was a British author, scholar, and Christian apologist whose work has had a lasting impact on literature, theology, and popular culture. Born in Belfast, Ireland, Lewis showed an early passion for storytelling and mythology. He studied at Oxford University and later became a fellow and tutor in English literature at Magdalen College. After serving in World War I, Lewis returned to academia and developed a keen interest in philosophy, literature, and faith. 
  Though raised in a Christian household, Lewis became an atheist in his youth, only to return to Christianity in his early thirties—a journey that profoundly shaped his writing. As a lay theologian, he wrote accessible and powerful works on Christian belief, including Mere Christianity, The Problem of Pain, and The Screwtape Letters. These texts helped articulate Christian faith for a modern audience, blending reason, imagination, and moral clarity. 
  Lewis is perhaps best known for The Chronicles of Narnia, a seven-book fantasy series that has captivated readers for generations. He also explored science fiction in his Space Trilogy, beginning with Out of the Silent Planet. As a member of the literary circle known as The Inklings—which included close friend J.R.R. Tolkien—Lewis valued imagination as a means of expressing deep truths. 
  C. S. Lewis died in 1963, but his work continues to inspire readers of all ages across the world.

  Celebrate the defining moments of a great American painter’s journey to creating his own voice in this stunning portrait of Andrew Wyeth. Andrew Wyeth is one of the greatest American painters of the twentieth century. Before he found his creative voice, he was a boy growing up in an artistic family, spending his time in rural Pennsylvania and Maine. Andy, as he was called by his family, was trained by his father, renowned artist N.C. Wyeth, but they didn’t always see eye to eye. Pa wanted his son to work in bold, bright colors, and to fill his compositions with exciting characters and places. But to Andy, the most exciting stories to paint were the ones he lived every day, that featured the familiar people and places he loved most. Here's a portrait of a masterful American painter whose childhood shaped the painter he would become. It showcases Andrew Wyeth’s unique world. The back matter includes six reproductions of celebrated Wyeth paintings.“A truly fantastic book for those who are young and young at heart. Gene Barretta does an incredible job of tracing my grandfather’s evolution as an artist from a little boy to a ninety-one-year old man.  This thoughtful book takes readers inside Andy’s head and allows us to look at the world through his eyes.” – Victoria Browning Wyeth
