The Pilgrims Regress by C S Lewis

One of C. S. Lewis works of fiction, or more specifically allegory, this book is clearly modelled upon Bunyans Pilgrims Progress, as Lewis cleverly satirizes different sections of the Church.

‘I have myself been divided by every one of these false answers in turn, and have contemplated each of them earnestly enough to discover the cheat’ C.S.Lewis, from the Introduction

Born in Ireland in 1898, C S Lewis gained a triple First at Oxford and was Fellow and Tutor at Magdalen College from 1925-54. In 1954 he became Professor of Mediaeval and Renaissance Literature at Cambridge. C S Lewis was for many years an atheist. He describes his conversion in Surprised by Joy: “In the Trinity Term of 1929 I gave in, and admitted that God was God… perhaps the most dejected and reluctant convert in all England.” One of the most gifted and influential Christian writers of our time, he is also celebrated for his Narnia chronicles and his literary criticism and science fiction. He died on 22nd November 1963.
