Till We Are Faces

Book •
‘Till We Have Faces’ is a retelling of the myth of Cupid and Psyche, exploring themes of love, sacrifice, and the search for understanding.

The story is narrated from the perspective of Orual, Psyche’s older sister, who grapples with jealousy and resentment.

Orual questions the nature of divine justice and her own perceptions of reality.

Through her journey, the novel delves into complex emotional and philosophical questions about human relationships and the divine.

Lewis uses the mythic framework to explore profound theological and psychological themes.
