From the author of Mere Christianity, the greatest Christian thinker of our time delivers the most engaging account of temptation and triumph over it ever written in this timeless novel.





The devil Screwtape, high-up in the Infernal Civil Service, writes to his nephew, Wormwood, a young demon new to securing the damnation of human souls. From the unique vantage point of the worldly-wise devil, C. S. Lewis follows the struggles, crises of faith and fresh convictions of one ordinary young man against Hell's perpetual cycle of corruption.



Written for J. R. R. Tolkien, this sly and ironic portrayal of human foibles and Hell's latest novelties is a masterpiece of satire. At once wildly comic, deadly serious and strikingly original, The Screwtape Letters is the most engaging account of temptation and triumph over it ever written.

Arvustused

The book is sparkling yet truly reverent, in fact a perfect joy, and should become a classic. The Guardian



Excellent, hard-hitting, challenging, provoking. The Observer

Born in Ireland in 1898, Clive Staples Lewis gained a triple First at Oxford and was Fellow and Tutor at Magdalen College from 1925-54, where he was a contemporary of Tolkien. In 1954 he became Professor of Mediaeval and Renaissance Literature at Cambridge. C. S. Lewis was for many years an atheist, until his conversion, memorably described in his autobiography Surprised by Joy: I gave in, and admitted that God was God perhaps the most dejected and reluctant convert in all England. He is celebrated for his famous series of childrens books, the Narnia Chronicles (which have been filmed and broadcast many times), as well as his literary criticism and science fiction. C. S. Lewis died on 22nd November 1963.
