The man. The myth.

Without my friends or cousins, I don't make sense. Life would be somewhere not worth my time.

I see...members haven't been able to delete posts in quite some time. You can, however, edit your posts. Most people either put [removed] or just a period in place.

I didn't saw The Screwtape Letters in there... This was the first C.S. Lewis book I read and I completely enjoyed it, he is a wonderful writer, very pleasing to read, I finished it in a week (of course that's not a great achievement since the book is not very long :blush: )

I recently started reading Till We Have Faces, and it is fastly approaching at being my favorite. It still has this great virtuosity with words and fast reading, andthe story is captivating. I hope to be able to read The Four Loves soon (I'm a recent fan of C.S. Lewis :pleased: )

For me Great Divorce is/was my favorite, although I keep all next to my bed and just pick up one and start reading when the insomnia kicks up. I can read CS Lewis over and over. I also like TWHF and Screwtape. :read:

The Abolition of Man is probably my favorite non-fiction book by Lewis. I think, in some ways, most (if not all) his other works can find their foundations in that book. As for fiction, that would be a tough choice. I suppose if I were pressed to choose, I would say Till We Have Faces. It is a multi-layered book that I always gain new insights about whenever I re-read it.
