Product ReviewsThe Great Divorce by Lewis, C. S.

Good, short book for anyone especially Lewis fans

I love this book because I am a big Lewis fan. I read this book for the first time in high school in 11th grade from the recomendation from my older brother. I fell in love with this book immediately, and I even wrote a 16-page paper about him. This is a good book confronting the reality of what Heaven and Hell really are. It is a short book, but it does not lack in description or symbolism. If you haven't read anything by Lewis but the Chronicles, don't expect this book to be the same. It is totally different, yet to those who are Lewis fanatics, The Great Divorce is very much like the Chronicles. When I say they are different, I mean the Chronicles are Sci-Fi, but The Great Divorce though it is fantasy, it is more realistic than talking fawns and whatnot.Read full review...

imaginative and provocative

Although a small book, it is full of imagery and ideas that get you thinking. It leaves you with a different perspective about life and death. Its not hard to see similarities with real life people including yourself. Beware, it might change your life.Read full review...

Solid Book

My personal favorite of C.S Lewis, right up next to The Last Battle. Lewis gives a picture to what heaven and hell could be. He then proceeds to describe many mans evil ways and how we want to cling instead of running away from them. He doesn’t say this is how heaven and hell are in reality, he just says that this is how they could be, and this is how man is wrong.Read full review...

Buy it read it-if you somehow dislike it,GIVE IT TO A FRIEND

One of my favorite C.S.Lewis tales-
I got this copy for my Sister.

It is like reading an old B&W Twilight Zone show.

The message is strong and most of us can recognize
people that they have known somewhere in the story...

It is a fast,engaging read-
many people like myself read it straight through the first time and
return to read it again&again over the years.

One of the best books I have ever read on naked human nature-
this is definitely on my "desert island" list!

Enjoy!Read full review...
