Perhaps another reading of this book would prove to penetrate more deeply than the first. Truly, dismissing this novel would be a travesty and a misrepresentation of the purpose for which Lewis wrote this book. It’s not mearly a fictional story about demons trying to sabatoge a new Christian…It’s a running commentary on one or more scenarios an emotions we have that inhibit our ability to see ourselves for who we are and for who God is…
