In this, his final?and most mature and masterful?novel, Lewis reminds us of our own fallibility and the role of a higher power in our lives. Told from the viewpoint of Psyche?s sister, Orual, Till We Have Faces is a brilliant examination of envy, betrayal, loss, blame, grief, guilt, and conversion. This was Lewis' last and favorite novel, this retelling of the Greek myth of Psyche and Cupid many people find it odd or even disturbing the way Lewis seems to mix Roman/Greek mythology with Biblical teaching, and 'Till We Have Faces' is definitely best read when you have a good grip on Lewis' use of the pagan gods and goddesses to portray. Lewis?the great British writer, scholar, lay theologian, broadcaster, Christian apologist, and bestselling author of Mere Christianity, The Screwtape Letters, The Great Divorce, The Chronicles of Narnia, and many other beloved classics?brilliantly reimagines the story of Cupid and Psyche. Lewis?s adult religious books, a repackaged edition of the revered author?s retelling of the myth of Cupid and Psyche?what he and many others regard as his best novel.C.
