Description: "The Company They Keep is a must for university libraries with strong Inklings collections or that serve institutions with creative writing programs." --Tolkien Studies "I hardly know where to begin when listing the possibilities for Glyer's book for the researcher. Starting with the obvious, anyone researching Lewis, Tolkien, or any of the other Inklings (either the men or their works), will find plenty of useful information both in the text and in the copious and often entertaining footnotes. Glyer's practical illustration of LeFevre's analysis of critique groups (almost a case study) is also valuable when researching such groups and the effect they have on writers in general. The book is relatively free from jargon and accessible to the educated layman. Anyone with a love of literature or writing will gain immense pleasure and knowledge from this thoroughly researched, very well-written book." -- Journal of the Fantastic in the Arts
