C.S. Lewis and the Space Trilogy

C.S. Lewis's Space Trilogy, including 'Out of the Silent Planet,' 'Perilandra,' and 'That Hideous Strength,' targets an adult audience rather than children. Though science fiction can appeal to younger readers, Lewis's narratives challenge complex ideas about humanity, sexuality, and theological questions that are not suitable for children. His intent appears to engage readers in significant discussions about the impact of science on humanity and the moral implications that arise. Thus, he utilizes literature as a means to explore intricate themes that transcend typical children's literature.
