Screwtape Letter

Book •
'The Screwtape Letters' by C.S.

Lewis is a satirical epistolary novel presenting a series of letters from a senior demon, Screwtape, to his nephew Wormwood, a junior tempter.

Screwtape advises Wormwood on methods to undermine a human's faith and lead him astray from God. Through clever manipulation and subtle tactics, the demons exploit human weaknesses and distractions to promote sin and worldly desires.

The book offers a unique perspective on temptation, morality, and the spiritual battle for the human soul.

Lewis employs wit and irony to expose the insidious nature of evil and the importance of vigilance in resisting its influence.
