Description
HUNTING THE UNICORN: A CRITICAL BIOGRAPHY OF RUTH PITTER. Don W. King. Kent, Ohio: The Kent State University Press, 2008. Hardcover. xviii + 342 pp. $55.00. ISBN 978-0-87338-947-1. RUTH PITTER, BESIDES BEING AN EXCELLENT POET, was a friend of C.S. Lewis, Owen Barfield, and Lord David Cecil. She was at least acquainted with W.H. Lewis. She met Joy Davidman one time, but they did not become friends--or even friendly. Don W. King's book covers these matters, tied to interests of the Mythopoeic Society, but they are just part of the biography. Since King's book is the first full treatment of Pitter's life and works, it becomes automatically the basic authority on Pitter--and, indeed, the book is substantially done, as one might expect from the author of C.S. Lewis, Poet.
