jarreloliveira 's review for:
The Pilgrim's Regress
by C.S. Lewis
I will review this book with a quote from Lewis himself.
"I can’t imagine a man really enjoying a book and reading it only once."
It was quite the adventure and the stories within worth taking the time to think on. A world worth traveling through but far more worth the trip once the conversion to Christ was solidified. The traveler saw things through a different light; in fact, saw it all with light for the first time only after facing the irresistible urge to come to terms with theism and the person of Christ.
Beautiful work, Mr. Lewis. I wish I could have the mind of an intellectual to better understand the deeper things mentioned here but the mind of a simpleton will do to understand the things expressed and experienced. Above all, thank God Lewis came to God and Christ came to him. Otherwise, Lewis might've been lost in his hyper-intellectualism, always pursuing the nonexistent "object" of a desire that can and would never be fulfilled.
And the afterword, where Lewis begins his apologia about the book and its many obscure moments, I rather not accept. I accept the novel as whole and complete, with shadows, light, and darkness in all pages as a whole story.
