Till We Have Faces: C.S. Lewis I fell almost immediately in love with Psyche and her tormented exiled persona. I suppose I tried to identify with each of her experiences. I can only say that I was engrossed enough in the book that I have had to re-read it to make sure that I understood what was being said. The conclusion of the book finds psyche in the ultimate position of power, and most of her world falls as she sees what she has taken of others lives for her own. Finally it all breaks down when a priest relates the tragic tale of her sister to her incorrectly, and so we now understand her reason for writing. I enjoyed the book thoroughly, though the style of C.S. Lewis is filled with sentences that are of rare literary quality. Over all a keeper, and a good start for a personal library. The Editor |
