Book Review
The Screwtape Letters The Author of The Screwtape Letters was written by Clive Staples Lewis (1898- 1963). He was one of the most well-known Christian writes in the world. He was also the writer of Chronicles of Narnia which is now in theaters and is one of the most popular stories in which he has written. In the story The Screwtape Letters C.S.

Lewis is perceived as a classical writer. He has shown a side to mankind that really was never meant to read I feel. In the way he brought this story to life it was like it escaped somehow from hell and brought to the public eye in a sense.

The things that make us or break us from our faith and make them turn their backs on their own faith. The Screwtape Letters is a very insightful book that challenges people to think outside the box. It Challenges their assumptions about the world and eternity. C.S. Lewis points out valid points about the way people think today and how human behave every day. The Screwtape Letters was a book brought to the world way before its time C.S. Lewis came up with an amazing story to bring out the way people are tempted and also to see it in the other way so to speak. God as an enemy was something I never saw before but the ways people can be persuaded and tempted by life is something you deal with in
