The Pilgrim's Regress by C.S. Lewis
3.0

An autobiographical allegory inspired by John Bunyan’s The Pilgrim’s Progress that describes Lewis’s journey from atheist to Christian. It centers around the idea of a desire that nothing in this world can satisfy, which you might recognize from a well-known quote from Mere Christianity. There were a lot of characters and situations that represented different schools of philosophy which I didn’t really understand, but the parts that talked about the Landlord (God) all made sense to me and I just read the rest as a journey story at surface level.
