The creators of Narnia and Middleearth, C. S. Lewis and J. R. R. Tolkien, were close friends and colleagues who met frequently with a community of fellow writers at Oxford in the 1930s and 1940s, all sharing their works-in-progress. The group, which also included Charles Williams and Owen Barfield, was called the Inklings. The author analyzes the groups' influence on and encouragement of one another's work through their diaries and letters and a comparison of rough drafts of their final, published work.
