My C.S. Lewis books have been breeding. That's my story and I'm sticking to it. It's the only reasonable explanation for how I came to NC with no copies of The Great Divorce and now have, uh, five? or six? I can't keep track.

It couldn't possibly be because I fail to remember which of Lewis' books I already have, and how many, and so I just keep buying them on impulse whenever I find them cheap. Nah. The problem must be that I double-shelve my books, and so St. Clive's works wind up back there in the dark, away from my prying eyes, and, well, ...

So. Anybody with gaps in the collection of the Lewis corpus? I'll unload them at a worth charity, unless one or more of my readers calls first dibs. Or maybe I'll bookcross them.

-- And probably a few others that presently escape my notice.

Also, I have a ridiculous stockpile of The Book of Common Prayer (USA, 1979). If you are a theologian or pastor, or a lay person who appreciates the rhythms of liturgy, however far removed you are from the Episcopal Church, you really ought to have one of these guys around for reference. But, um, you shouldn't have as many of them as I do. Unless you're running your own prayer services.
