Screwtape Letters: Letters from a Senior to a Junior Devil

From the author of Mere Christianity
The greatest Christian thinker of our time delivers the most engaging account of temptation – and triumph over it ever written in this timeless novel.

The Story
The devil Screwtape, high-up in the Infernal Civil Service, writes to his nephew, Wormwood, a young demon new to securing the damnation of human souls. From the unique vantage point of the worldly-wise devil, C. S. Lewis follows the struggles, crises of faith, and fresh convictions of one ordinary young man against Hell's perpetual cycle of corruption.

A Masterpiece of Satire
Written for J. R. R. Tolkien, this sly and ironic portrayal of human foibles and Hell's latest novelties is:

• Wildly comic
• Deadly serious
• Strikingly original

At once entertaining and profound, The Screwtape Letters remains the most engaging account of temptation – and triumph over it – ever written.
