Screwtape Letters Audio Book

Screwtape Letters Audio Book – The wondrous grace of radio theater and the award-winning audio drama team that brings you The Chronicles of Narnia. In his enduringly popular masterpiece The Screwtape Letters, C.S. Lewis imagined hell as a horrible bureaucracy. Along with spiritual insight and frustration, Lewis suggests that demons operate within a larger organization, characterized by brutal human characteristics: competition, greed, and tyrannical punishment. What drives demons to torment their “patients” is to avoid their own painful suffering and desire to rule.

The style and unique dark humor of The Screwtape Letters is continued in this full-length drama set in London during World War II. The story is carried by the senior demon Screwtape, brilliantly played by award-winning actor Andy Serkis (“Golem” in Lord of the Rings), who shares a letter with his trainer, the demon Wormwood. The 31 letters lead to dramatic scenes in Hell and in the real world with people—the demons known as “patients”—with his circle of friends and family. This radio theater production stars Geoffrey Palmer (Tomorrow Never Dies), Laura Michelle Kelly (Sweeney Todd), Eileen Page (The Secret Garden) and other world-class actors.

CS Lewis (1898 – 1963) was one of the intellectual giants of the 20th century and arguably the most influential Christian writer of his time.

His best-known and best-known writings include the seven-part fantasy series for children The Chronicles of Narnia (1956). the science fiction Space Trilogy (1938-1945); The Apologist for Pain Trouble (1940), Script Letters (1942), Miracles (1947), Mere Christianity (1952), and The Four Loves (1960). and biographies in Joy Surprised (1955) and Saddened (1961). Countless Christian writers, pastors, thinkers, and artists have cited CS Lewis as a key influence in their faith journeys, and his Narnia books have become classics of children’s literature.

Clive Staples Lewis was born in Belfast, Ireland. 29 November 1898. He was the son of Albert James Lewis, a barrister of Welsh descent. Lewis was known as ‘Jack’ as a child after adopting the name of his pet who was killed by a car. His mother, Flora, was the daughter of an Anglican priest and died when Louis was only ten years old. Lewis had one brother, Warren – affectionately known as Warney – who was three years his senior. The two would remain close friends and creative collaborators throughout Lewis’s life. As children, they shared a fascination with anthropomorphic animal characters such as Beatrix Potter’s, and wrote stories about a fantasy world they called ‘Boxen’, which was entirely ruled by such magical creatures.

Lewis’s childhood home was filled with books, and he became a voracious and voracious reader at an early age. Lewis was educated by private tutors until his mother’s death, and then moved to a series of boarding schools in Ireland and England. It was during the last of these that Louis abandoned his childhood Christianity and became an atheist at the age of 15. It was also during this time that he developed a deep love for Old Norse mythology and the natural world – an aesthetic complex he named ‘the North’ and associated with a mystical inner longing for ‘happiness’. Under the influence of his teacher William Kirkpatrick, Lewis goes on to become deeply involved with ancient Greek literature. Lewis’ academic background He experienced the horrors of trench warfare, and was wounded by what is now called ‘friendly fire’.

After the war, Lewis continued his studies at Oxford, and in the years between 1920 and 1923 he obtained first degrees in Greek and Latin literature, philosophy and English. In the year In 1925 he became a fellow and lecturer in English literature at Magdalen College, Oxford – a position he held for almost three decades. In the year In 1954, Lewis moved to Cambridge, where he was awarded the new Chair of Medieval and Renaissance Literature.

In the year In the late 1920s, Lewis’s circle of literary friends in Oxford merged into a discussion group known as The Inklings, which met regularly for two decades. Members shared an enthusiasm for narrative tales, fables, legends – especially Norse, Celtic, traditional and medieval material – and fantasy fiction. They would read their own works in progress aloud and receive feedback and criticism from their peers. Members include JR Tolkien, Hugo Dyson, Owen Barfield, Charles Williams and Warney Lewis. Tolkien’s Lord of the Rings and Lewis’ science fiction novel Beyond the Silent Planet are among the material produced with The Inklings.

His friend Tolkien’s devout Catholicism had a decisive influence on Lewis’ conversion to Christianity between 1929 and 1931. The Road was developed by Lewis for the Scottish writer and Congregationalist pastor George Macdonald (1824-1905) and also for GK Chesterton’s epic novel. Apologetics The Eternal Man (1925).

“In 1929 I gave in and confessed that God is God and I knelt down and prayed: I was probably the most angry and recalcitrant person in all of England that night.”

As a Christian, Lewis remained committed to the Anglican Communion in which he grew up, although in his apologetic writings he tried to minimize sectarian differences, emphasizing instead the eternal essence of orthodoxy. It was the latter that Lewis presented in his popular work Mere Christianity, a series of radio talks he gave to the BBC from 1942 to 1944, and one of the best Christian books of our time. Lewis’s theology was fundamentally Anglican, with an ecumenical dimension shaped by the Catholicism of Tolkien and Chesterton and the Christian universalism of Macdonald.
