celistamar 's review for:
The Pilgrim's Regress
by C.S. Lewis
Lewis's insights about philosophy, culture, and religion in this book are consistent with his more popular works, but perhaps because those weighty thoughts were interwoven with a fictional narrative, it was really hard to get through this book in one sitting.
Put another way, there were many wonderful nuggets of humor and discernment (as is typical to Lewis), and his description of the landscape and the protagonist's activities were beautifully composed; however, those passages were too few and far between to make this a compelling read.
I'll probably read this book again when I'm older and have worked out my own opinions more thoroughly, but I don't know if I would recommend "The Pilgrim's Regress" to anyone.
