Publisher Description

Why Must We Suffer?

“If God is good and all-powerful, why does he allow his creatures to suffer pain?” And what about the suffering of animals, who neither deserve pain nor can be improved by it? The greatest Christian thinker of our time sets out to disentangle these knotty issues. With his signature wealth of compassion and insight, C.S. Lewis offers answers to these crucial questions and shares his hope and wisdom to help heal a world hungering for a true understanding of human nature.

Sal Paisley ,

A serious book from a serious writer

This is a serious book from a serious writer and thinker who is too often pigeonholed. It is not an easy read, though. Long ponderous sentences. It’s a pretty intellectual book still. It’s more about the ideas than it is the way he organizes and presents them. It’s pretty ambitious and searching stuff from Lewis. Worth rereading.

Classic

One of the best books I've ever read on suffering (if not the best). Should be required reading for every Christian.
