A demon named Screwtape tutors his nephew Wormwood on the fine art of tempting a human soul to damnation. As Wormwood's "patient" wrestles with faith, Screwtape ridicules his weaknesses and amplifies his vices. In this piercing allegory, C.S. Lewis reveals the subtle, twisted logic of evil—and the importance of paying attention to one's spiritual life.
