Episode Two: J.R.R. Tolkien vs. C.S. Lewis with Fran Wilde
Okay, okay, before you get all up in arms here, we are away Tolkien and Lewis weren’t actually rivals, per say. But they did have a bitter falling out that left them at odds with one another for years. One that the two former friends came to regret terribly.
We’ll unpack this historic falling out, how these two came to dislike one another, and just how close and similar they were with award-winning fantasy icon Fran Wilde (Updraft, The Book of Gems, and endless more wonderful stories).
