| The sister of Psyche discovers love and beauty in Lewis's best fictional work. A complex allegory ranking alongside Pilgrim's Progress it depicts Orual's hunt for her sister and God's hunt for Orual. It is the story of all our lives set in an authentic depiction of Ancient Greece. The most subtle of Lewis's adult fiction and the least known in his home country. It is a classic, but society has yet to realise this. | ||
