You should read Lewis’ Space Trilogy: ‘Out of the Silent Planet’, ‘Perelandra’, and ‘That Hideous Strength’.

Thanks so much for the reminder. I remember reading a moving quote in an article a few years ago and it turns out it was an excerpt taken from ‘That Hideous Strength...’

That Hideous Strngth anticipates the academic lunacy of today. It’s a fantastic book.

That Hidepus Strength is one of my all-time favorites.

Mind-blowingly insightful about the nature of evil.

The twenty-page argument by Satan/Weston in Perelandra is as fine an exposé as I've found--certainly among Lewis's best writing.
