The battle between good and evilmdashin both the
seen and unseen worldsmdashwas clearly at play
in the era of C S Lewis and his friends in the
Oxford literary group the Inklings Some of the
members of the Inklings carried physical and psy-
chological scars from World War I that led them
to deeply consider the problem of evil during the
dark era of World War II
Among the Inklings Lewis was at the forefront
of writing on human pain devilry and the
supernatural with books like The Screwtape Letters He provides the main focus of this book with
Tolkienrsquos The Lord of the Rings trilogy as another
rich resource looking into the World War II era
and beyond Particularly focused in the context of
wartime Duriez delves into the interplay between
good and evil enlightening us to the way of
goodness and the promise of a far country

The years when Lewis lived through
World War I and then World War II
provided startling insight into his preoc-
cupation with devilrymdashthe powers of
evilmdashand goodness His differing expe-
rience of the global wars both unprec-
edented in history before the twentieth
century represent a quest and a growth in
Lewis as thinker writer and storytellermdash
and as a person It now seems natural to
us for a book like The Screwtape Letters to be
begotten during a war that is to us a typi-
cally modern all-out conflict Many wars
now seem to be in words now common
to brave journalists at the scene ldquoof bibli-
cal proportionsrdquo or ldquoapocalypticrdquo What
remains surprising indeed remarkable
is that Lewis seemingly without effort
could approach this subject with humor
and biting satire without alienating his
readers even today by diminishing the
horror of evil and human suffering
ldquoNobody knows more about the respective canons
of C S Lewis and J R R Tolkien or their
collaborative friendship than Colin Duriez and
he puts his erudition to work in this new volume
that explores and elucidates the shadow of evil in
their respective literary works Those looking for
contemporary insights into the source and problem of
evil need look no further than Bedeviledrdquo
mdashBruce L Edwards author of Not a Tame Lion
ldquoWith his characteristic breadth of knowledge and
depth of insight Colin Duriez boldly explores
what C S Lewis and J R R Tolkien have
told us about the great cosmic battle between good
and evilmdashin their own wartime experiences and
especially in everyday life Together Lewis
Tolkien and Duriez raise the victory flag with high
courage wisdom and joyrdquo

The years when Lewis lived through
World War I and then World War II
provided startling insight into his preoc-
cupation with devilrymdashthe powers of
evilmdashand goodness His differing expe-
rience of the global wars both unprec-
edented in history before the twentieth
century represent a quest and a growth in
Lewis as thinker writer and storytellermdash
and as a person It now seems natural to
us for a book like The Screwtape Letters to be
begotten during a war that is to us a typi-
cally modern all-out conflict Many wars
now seem to be in words now common
to brave journalists at the scene ldquoof bibli-
cal proportionsrdquo or ldquoapocalypticrdquo What
remains surprising indeed remarkable
is that Lewis seemingly without effort
could approach this subject with humor
and biting satire without alienating his
readers even today by diminishing the
horror of evil and human suffering
ldquoNobody knows more about the respective canons
of C S Lewis and J R R Tolkien or their
collaborative friendship than Colin Duriez and
he puts his erudition to work in this new volume
that explores and elucidates the shadow of evil in
their respective literary works Those looking for
contemporary insights into the source and problem of
evil need look no further than Bedeviledrdquo
mdashBruce L Edwards author of Not a Tame Lion
ldquoWith his characteristic breadth of knowledge and
depth of insight Colin Duriez boldly explores
what C S Lewis and J R R Tolkien have
told us about the great cosmic battle between good
and evilmdashin their own wartime experiences and
especially in everyday life Together Lewis
Tolkien and Duriez raise the victory flag with high
courage wisdom and joyrdquo

and as a person It now seems natural to
us for a book like The Screwtape Letters to be
begotten during a war that is to us a typi-
cally modern all-out conflict Many wars
now seem to be in words now common
to brave journalists at the scene ldquoof bibli-
cal proportionsrdquo or ldquoapocalypticrdquo What
remains surprising indeed remarkable
is that Lewis seemingly without effort
could approach this subject with humor
and biting satire without alienating his
readers even today by diminishing the
horror of evil and human suffering
ldquoNobody knows more about the respective canons
of C S Lewis and J R R Tolkien or their
collaborative friendship than Colin Duriez and
he puts his erudition to work in this new volume
that explores and elucidates the shadow of evil in
their respective literary works Those looking for
contemporary insights into the source and problem of
evil need look no further than Bedeviledrdquo
mdashBruce L Edwards author of Not a Tame Lion
ldquoWith his characteristic breadth of knowledge and
depth of insight Colin Duriez boldly explores
what C S Lewis and J R R Tolkien have
told us about the great cosmic battle between good
and evilmdashin their own wartime experiences and
especially in everyday life Together Lewis
Tolkien and Duriez raise the victory flag with high
courage wisdom and joyrdquo

The years when Lewis lived through

provided startling insight into his preoc-
cupation with devilrymdashthe powers of
evilmdashand goodness His differing expe-
rience of the global wars both unprec-
edented in history before the twentieth
century represent a quest and a growth in
Lewis as thinker writer and storytellermdash
and as a person It now seems natural to
us for a book like The Screwtape Letters to be
begotten during a war that is to us a typi-
cally modern all-out conflict Many wars
now seem to be in words now common
to brave journalists at the scene ldquoof bibli-
cal proportionsrdquo or ldquoapocalypticrdquo What
