Ah, yes, that one.
Well, I'm sorry to have to break this to you, but in many ways, it's the least symbolic of all the books. I am avoiding using the word allegorical, because C.S. Lewis hated allogories, said Narnia wasn't one, and swore he'd never write one. He did, over course, write a few later on, but the Narnia series are not allegories.
That being said, this book does have many things that definitely remind us of things of the Bible, particular in the scenes involving Aslan, as that character really is supposed to be a representation of Christ.

yeah, you are right! I should've been more specific. I was talking about The Voyage of the Dawn Trader. It is my favourite and I would love to know your opinion about it. Thanks for writing back.

And which fifth book do you refer too? There are two, depending on which numbering system you are using.

Hi everyone, I just found this group and I joint. I really love Lewis
writings and I 'm thinking of many possible ways to analize the seven
books (you know which books). I really would like to have a discussion
about the 5th book (it one of my favorites) for I do consider it has
the most elements to be related with the Bible. Please, if you are
interested contact me. Bye
