Definitely one to reread/listen every year or so.
John Cleese's audio book version really does justice to the character of Screwtape.

Series of letters from one demon to another with hints about how to corrupt a man. Some interesting ideas, but definitely written by devout believer who would never be able to understand a non-believer.

i think this was really interesting and had a lot of commentary that was surprisingly still relevant to today’s society, even if you don’t think about it from a religious perspective. it’s a well executed satire. did i enjoy reading it…not really. but it was short!
A great classic! I understood what C.S. Lewis was saying & it was very much still relevant today. Now I want to read all of his books! Such an interesting perspective on life.
This is one of my favorite C. S. Lewis books. It is a satire written in defense of Christian faith. It includes 31 letters from Screwtape (an experienced devil) to Wormwood (devil in training). Screwtape instructs Wormwood on effective strategies for temping the human he was assigned to. The goal is for him to continue in a steady path toward damnation. Due to church attendance and a faithful Christian woman, the efforts of Screwtape and Wormwood are defeated when their subject dies in a bombing raid with his soul at peace. Through his satiric use of the demonic narrative persona, Lewis examines the opposing sides in the battle between good and evil.
Livro intenso e que nos deixa embriagado pelas cartas do diabo!
Há coisas tão subtis que nos passam ao lado… e o diabo, esse está sempre à espreita com os seus aprendizes.
A frase que mais me tocou foi “Ele deseja servos que podem acabar se tornando filhos. Nós desejamos sugar, Ele deseja contribuir”
Altamente recomendável para todos os cristãos!
