Crit Containing Books The Great Divorce
I had a misconception about what this book was actually on, and a dream of Heaven and Hell was not it. It was fascinating the way Lewis demonstrated some strong philosophies and thought-provoking points through the medium of allegory yet again. While he intentionally states that he's not trying to provide an accurate picture of the afterlife, this was still very different from anything I've ever dreamed Heaven and Hell to be like. I enjoyed the story all the more for it being a less traditional

I own this edition. Go here to listen to Lewis read his introduction. See here for Joe Rigney on Lewis on Hell.I do believe that artists have a responsibility to get theology as right as they can, even in their fiction, but I think that there is a significant difference between The Shack and Lewis's The Great Divorce. Whereas Young's novel really seemed to be promoting the theology behind it, The Great Divorce should not be read as proposing the way that Heaven and Hell really are. (Lewis

I don't know how to rate this....I have so many mixed feelings......

This is my favorite work by C.S. Lewis. Id give it 8 stars, . . if twer possible. In it, Lewis reacts to moral relativism (the Marriage of Heaven and Hell) by suggesting that you cannot take all luggage with you on all journeys; on one journey even your right hand and your right eye may be among the things you have to leave behind. He astutely notes that the great divorce of good and evil is utterly voluntarily. And he does so by conjuring up this simple tale of a bus ride from a ghostly,

Oh my goodness, I'm in shock! I feel like I have been hit with a ton of spiritual bricks; not an uncommon feeling after reading any of Lewis' books. How wonderful! The best part is that no matter what the subject or plot, Lewis always turns the focus back to Christ. This book reminds me a bit of his book, "Pilgrim's Regress", and John Bunyan's book too. It follows that sort of pattern- wandering in a strange land, meeting allegorical people, having philosophical conversations with angels and men

Theres something about the way Lewis strings together his words that has always struck a cord in me. I often have a difficult time connecting to books concerning theology and apologetics, though there is within me a thirst for them. This is never the case with Lewis. The Great Divorce isnt my favorite of his works, but it still resonates with me in a way that few works from other authors have ever been able to replicate.I think earth, if chosen instead of Heaven, will turn out to have been, all

If you found yourself in Hell and then were offered a chance to leave and spend an eternity in Heaven, you'd jump at it, wouldn't you? .. Or would you .??The Great Divorce tells of a journey of souls from the grey town, which we soon see represents Hell, to a wide open space of meadows, rivers and mountains. Yet when the people disembark they are dismayed. They now appears as Ghosts and all the vegetation is dense and tough in a way that makes movement difficult and, at times, dangerous. And who
