Small curiosities of Narnia and its author

Short true stories, checked and sourced, for seeing Narnia and Lewis from an unexpected angle.

The cabinet of the curious

  • Short, checked curiosities, each with its source.
  • Each curiosity points to an entry or an article on the site.

A detail of translation, a memory of Lewis, a hidden name, a coincidence in the calendar: the 'Did you know?' curiosities are small true stories, checked and sourced, which make you want to open a book again. They alternate with the briefs in the news feed, and each one points to the entry or the article that says more.

Where to begin?

Where do these curiosities come from?

From the books themselves, from Lewis's letters and essays, from the standard biographies, and from the 'Did you know?' boxes in our entries on characters, places and books. Each curiosity gives its source.
