图书描述

A Severe Mercy is an autobiographical book by Sheldon Vanauken, relating the author's relationship with his wife, their friendship with C. S. Lewis, conversion to Christianity and subsequent tragedy. It was first published in 1977. The book is strongly influenced, at least stylistically, by the Evelyn Waugh novel Brideshead Revisited. The book was followed by a sequel, Under the Mercy, first published in 1985.

The book is, in a sense, made up of two distinct parts: the first chronicles the love story of Vanauken and his wife, a love he refers to as pagan. The couple pledged always to put their love before all else, and the intensity of their devotion to one another and their exclusivity makes up the early chapters. However, as Vanauken and his wife, Davy, explore Christianity and are gradually converted, the primacy of their love for one another comes into question for both of them--though Vanauken's conversion is somewhat slower and more reluctant.

His analysis is aided by a correspondence with C.S. Lewis, then an Oxford Don, and some of Lewis's letters are reprinted in the book. Vanauken's circle of Oxford acquaintances includes other recognizable names as well, including Catholic priest Julian Stead, who went on to author books of religious poetry and a noted text on St. Benedict's rule of life.

It depicts a beautiful memoir of Van and Davy. They met each other in the death of winter, encountered God in the Spring of Oxford, faced death in the fall of Virginia. But death is not the end of the story; rebirth is awaiting. We're told unless a grain of wheat falls to the ground and dies, it remains by itself. So does love, I guess.
