Editorial Reviews
The Merriam-Webster Encyclopedia of Literature
Epistolary novel by C.S. Lewis, published serially in 1941 in Guardian, a weekly religious newspaper. The episodes were collected in book form in 1942 and revised as The Screwtape Letters and Screwtape Proposes a Toast in 1961. Written in defense of Christian faith, this popular satire consists of a series of 31 letters in which Screwtape, an experienced devil, instructs his young charge, Wormwood, in the art of temptation. Confounded by church doctrines and a faithful Christian woman, their efforts are defeated when their subject--a World War II pilot--dies in a bombing raid with his soul at peace. Through his satiric use of the demonic narrative persona, Lewis examines the opposing sides in the battle between good and evil.
