The Screwtape Letters

<p>A milestone in the history of popular theology, <em>The Screwtape Letters</em> is an iconic classic on spiritual warfare and the dynamics of temptation.</p><p>This profound and striking narrative takes the form of a series of letters from Screwtape, a devil high in the Infernal Civil Service, to his nephew Wormwood, a junior colleague engaged in his first mission on earth, trying to secure the damnation of a young man who has just become a Christian. Although the young man initially looks to be a willing victim, he changes his ways and is "lost" to the young devil.</p><p>Dedicated to Lewis's friend and colleague J. R. R. Tolkien, <em>The Screwtape Letters</em> is a timeless classic on spiritual conflict and the psychology of temptation which are part of our religious experience.</p>
