- Now for something to make us all weep. I have a book of C.S. Lewis
- letters out of the library. In December of 1932, he writes to thank his
- friend Arthur Greeves for agreeing to look over the manuscript of
- -Pilgrim's Regress-. In February of 1933, he says the book has been
- accepted, with some disagreement about what revisions are needed. The book
- was published in May, 1933!
-
- Sigh.
