“Suspicion often creates what it suspects"; C.S. Lewis' Screwtape Letters; In the Rare Original Dust Jacket
Seventh printing, published six months after the first of Lewis' classic work. Octavo, original cloth. Lacking the front free endpaper, very good in a good dust jacket. Rare in the original dust jacket.
The Screwtape Letters comprises thirty-one letters written by a senior demon named Screwtape to his nephew, Wormwood (named after a star in Revelation), a younger and less experienced demon, who is charged with guiding a man toward "Our Father Below" (Devil / Satan) and away from "the Enemy" (God). Versions of the letters were originally published weekly in the Anglican periodical The Guardian between May and November 1941.
