Publisher Description
The Timeless Novel About a Bus Ride from Hell to Heaven
In The Great Divorce, C.S. Lewis again employs his formidable talent for fable and allegory. The writer finds himself in Hell boarding a bus bound for Heaven. The amazing opportunity is that anyone who wants to stay in Heaven, can. This is a starting point for an extraordinary meditation upon good and evil, grace and judgment. Lewis’s revolutionary idea is the discovery that the gates of Hell are locked from the inside. Using his extraordinary descriptive powers, Lewis’s The Great Divorce will change the way we think about good and evil.
Customer Reviews
Heaven or Hell?
A superb story that brings to light the weaknesses of conventional understandings of Time, eternity and Freedom. Very thought provoking.
Patrick V
Thought provoking read as always from C.S Lewis. I got the major themes but am too dull to follow the author's full train of thought. I will stick with the truth of gaining the world to lose my soul is no gain at all.
The best book I've ever read read
Do you think you understand heaven and hell? Cs Lewis takes us on a trip through the eye of a visitor along with witnessing sin and human failings in all it's cover. The best book I've ever read.
