THE PILGRIM’S REGRESS REISSUE

One of C. S. Lewis works of fiction or more specifically allegory this book is clearly modelled upon Bunyans Pilgrims Progress as Lewis cleverly satirizes different sections of the Church.Written within a year of Lewis conversion it characterises the various theological and temperamental leanings of the time. This brilliant and biting allegory has lost none of its freshness and theological profundity as the pilgrims pass the City of Claptrap the tableland of the High Anglicans and the far-off marsh of the Theosophists. As ever Lewis says memorably in brief what would otherwise have demanded a full-length philosophy of religion.
