This timeless classic recounting the correspondence between two devils is one of Lewis's most brilliant imaginative creations and has sold millions of copies worldwide.

"My Dear Wormwood...."? Enter Screwtape, an experienced devil. His nephew Wormwood is just at the start of his career as a tempter and has been assigned to secure the damnation of an ordinary young man who has just become a Christian.? In this slyly humorous exchange, C. S. Lewis delves into moral questions about good and evil, temptation, repentance, and grace. Though the cunning actions of Wormwood and Screwtape occur nearly 100 years ago, readers will marvel at the parallels to modern life today.

This is a book for C. S. Lewis fans and anyone who wants to take a deep dive into what it means to be a human. Lewis uses The Screwtape Letters to convey religious concepts like temptation in an understandable way by exploring free will and how it is humanity's greatest weakness as well as its greatest strength, sharing thoughts on God's love and how He uses your pain and suffering to bring you closer to Him, and living by faith and not by your feelings within community.

Industry Reviews
"This book is sparkling yet truly reverent, in fact a perfect joy, and should become a classic."--Guardian "C. S. Lewis understood, like few in the past century, just how deeply faith is both imaginative and rational."--Christianity Today "[The Screwtape Letters] show[s] his ability to dramatize: to set forth an attractive vision of the Christian life, proceeding by means of character and plot to narrate an engaging story, everything colorful, vibrant, and active."--Christianity Today "Apparently this Oxford don and Cambridge professor is going to be around for a long time; he calls himself a dinosaur but he seems to speak to people where they are."--The Washington Post Book World "C.S. Lewis is the ideal persuader for the half-convinced, for the good man who would like to be a Christian but finds his intellect getting in the way."--New York Times Book Review "Excellent, hard-hitting, challenging, provoking."--Observer "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
