Which C.S. Lewis novel was dedicated to his wife, Joy Davidman?

Till We Have Faces was dedicated by C.S. Lewis to his wife, Joy Davidman.

Published in 1956, Till We Have Faces: A Myth Retold is Lewis’s final novel. It retells the myth of Cupid and Psyche through the perspective of Orual, a princess who becomes queen of the fictional kingdom of Glome.

The dedication reads “To Joy Davidman,” and the novel’s publication followed Lewis’s civil marriage to Davidman in 1956. Their relationship became a significant part of Lewis’s later life, although the book’s composition began before their marriage.

The title refers to the problem of appearing before the gods with a true self rather than a public mask. It is not one of the Narnia novels, and it is often discussed separately from Lewis’s more explicitly Christian apologetic works.
