An interesting Dante’s inferno-esque exploration of heaven and hell.
I’m currently in the process of grieving a family member, which may be why it hit harder than it would have otherwise. I grew up Protestant, so the idea that souls can be saved after death is not something that I have explored. Obviously I don’t agree with all the points that he makes here, but CS Lewis does provide thought provoking ideas in this short book.
