This engaging correspondence between two devils is one of C.S. Lewis brilliant imaginative creations and, on publication, was recognised as a milestone in the history of popular theology. Selling millions of copies worldwide, it has become a favorite of Lewis fans.
The Screwtape Letters by C.S. Lewis is a classic masterpiece of religious satire that entertains readers 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´s The Screwtape Letters is the most engaging account of temptation-and triumph over it-ever written.
"Why get a new Screwtape Letters ? I love the feel and look of this annotated edition. ...I love the addition of red ink inside this book for the notes. There are a couple of hundred helpful annotations that first-time and veteran readers will find intriguing." Read the Spirit

He wrote more than thirty books, allowing him to reach a vast audience, and his works continue to attract thousands of new readers every year. His most distinguished and popular accomplishments include Out of the Silent Planet, The Great Divorce, The Screwtape Letters, and the universally acknowledged classics The Chronicles of Narnia.
