Notes

The Dark Tower and Other Stories, published posthumously in 1977, is a collection of unfinished works, fragments, and lesser-known writings by C. S. Lewis. The title story, The Dark Tower, is a mysterious and haunting tale that was possibly intended as a sequel to Out of the Silent Planet, part of Lewis’s Space Trilogy. It introduces strange ideas like alternate realities and sinister experiments, offering a darker tone than much of his other fiction. The collection gives readers a glimpse into Lewis’s creative process and imagination, showing another side of his storytelling beyond his more familiar works. While some debate the authenticity or completeness of The Dark Tower, it remains a fascinating addition to the legacy of a deeply influential writer.
