PWJ: S2E4 – AA – Patti Callahan
Our episode today is rather special. I sat down with New York Times best selling author, Patti Callahan, to discuss her recent book, Becoming Mrs. Lewis, which recounts the Improbable love story between Joy Davidman and C. S. Lewis.
I was going to try and trim the episode down, but in the end it was so enjoyable I thought I simply had to post the whole thing!

Yesterday I interviewed Patti Callahan about her latest book, Becoming Mrs Lewis. The interview will be being posted next week, but until then, I thought you might enjoy this videos which were recorded to promote the book. In them, Patti talks about Oxford, the Kilns and Lewis’ relationship with Joy Davidman.
One Minute Review: Becoming Mrs Lewis
This past week I’ve been working my way through Becoming Mrs Lewis by Patti Callahan, a novelisation of the relationship and romance between my hero, C.S. Lewis, and Joy Davidman. I hadn’t known that much about either Joy or her writings prior to starting this book, most of which was gleaned from the rather unreliable Shadowlands movie.
I have to say that, by the time I finished this book, my appetite had greatly increased to know more about this fascinating woman. In fact, I immediately ordered two books by Dr. Don King, one an edited collection of her letters, and another of her poetry, short extracts of which we were treated to at the start of each chapter.
The book is beautifully written. I can’t emphasize that enough. Patti Callahan took me on a journey. I couldn’t help be drawn in as I travelled with Joy, experiencing the highs of her trip to England, as well as the lows of her crumbling marriage.
