"In this witty and profound book Mr. Lewis has written the most vital restatement of religious truths produced in our time, and he has found a brilliantly original form in which to do it. At every point these letters reveal a penetrating understanding of good and evil, and I do not hesitate to compare Mr. Lewis's achievement with Pilgrim's Progress."
-- W.J. TURNER in 'The Spectator'.
"The best way to drive out the devil, if he will not yield to texts of Scripture, is to jeer and flout him, for he cannot bear scorn." --Martin Luther.
"The devill.. the prowde spirite.. cannot endure to be mocked." --Thomas More
