Takes Chesterton's 'natural theology' through fairytales as a theological project appropriate to an intellectual attempt to return to faith in a secular age. This book argues that Tolkien's fiction makes sense also as the work of a Catholic writer steeped in Chestertonian ideas and sharing his literary-theological poetics.
