Screwtape Letters : Annotated Edition

$28.99

At the 50th anniversary of his death, this special annotated edition of a Christian classic by C. S. Lewis (Mere Christianity, Great Divorce, Chronicles of Narnia series) with notes and excerpts from Lewis’s other works to help illuminate this diabolical masterpiece.

First published in 1942, The Screwtape Letters has sold millions of copies worldwide and is recognized as a milestone in the history of popular theology. A masterpiece of satire, it 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 gives us the correspondence of the worldly-wise devil Screwtape to his nephew Wormwood, a novice demon in charge of securing the damnation of an ordinary young man.

Now, for the first time, The Screwtape Letters will be presented in full-text alongside helpful annotations in a striking two-color format. These annotations will give fans a deeper, more nuanced understanding of the popular book, through background information, explanations of terms, historical significance, and excerpts from Lewis’s other works that more fully explain the ideas in this volume.

For both expert Lewis fans and for casual readers, this will be a beautiful and insightful guide to a beloved classic.
