Here is something that I thought interesting-- The Great Divorce peformed on stage: http://ncronline.org/NCR_Online/archive ... 50506p.php
. It sounds like the play is pretty accurate to the book, which is more about human than divine nature, as the article points out. And I'm afraid it's true that we often create our own personal "hells", something which Lewis mentioned often in his books. It's staying within our own limitations which sometimes crushes us.

Rat! he found breath to whisper, shaking. Are you afraid?
Afraid? murmured the Rat, his eyes shining with unutterable love.
Afraid! Of Him? O, never, never! And yet -- and yet -- O, Mole, I am afraid!
Then the two animals, crouching to the earth, bowed their heads and did worship.
