BOOK GROUP MATERIAL & INFO
  • Inspired by Helen Luke's essay, "Orual," this series will consider the myth of Psyche (Orual)
    and Eros as re-told by Paula Reeve and C.S. Lewis. 
  • ​We will begin each book group with a very brief statement of your name, your location, and a line or two from the reading that spoke to you.  This will put the voices of the authors into the room. Then the discussion will commence.​
  • If you have a Spotify or Audible membership, Paula Reeves’ audiobook is available there: Lighting the Forbidden Lamp - an audio by Paula Reeves
  • Till We Have Faces by C.S. Lewis
  • "Orual" by Helen M. Luke is found in both The Way of Woman and Kaleidoscope
