The Screwtape Letters
SKU: 6175
$13.99A masterpiece of satire, this classic has entertained and enlightened readers the world over with its sly and ironic portrayal of human life and foibles from the vantage point of Screwtape, a highly placed assistant to "Our Father Below". At once wildly comic, deadly serious, and strikingly original, C.S. Lewis gives us the correspondence of the worldly-wise old devil to his nephew, Wormwood, a novice demon in charge of securing the damnation of an ordinary young man. The "Screwtape Letters" is the most engaging account of temptation - and triumph over it - ever written. 209 pages. Learn More
