One of C.S. Lewis' fictional works, or more precisely, an allegory, this book is unmistakably modeled after Bunyan's Pilgrims Progress, as Lewis deftly satirizes various aspects of the Church. Written within a year of Lewis' conversion, it characterizes the various theological and temperamental leanings of the time. This brilliant and biting allegory has lost none of its freshness and theological depth, as the pilgrims pass through the City of Claptrap, the plateau of the High Anglicans, and the distant marsh of the Theosophists. As ever, Lewis memorably expresses in a few words what would otherwise have required a full-length philosophy of religion.
