Is it perfectly...TGD is my favorite book of Lewis.<br /><br />Is it perfectly written? ...Well I guess I'd have to agree with you there.<br /><br />But then I think that's why it sticks so much with me. It's so very much like life, which doesn't really have finality until that one moment. Likewise we don't know the full ends and arcs of every person we meet in life (mores the pity I think) but only a few. Thus we see in the book the ultimate fates of a few the narrator runs into, but not all.<br /><br />Finally, while plenty of books leave me wanting to avoid Hell, TGD (and Lewis in general) is one of the VERY few books that leave me WANTING Heaven. And that positive longing makes up for a lot of shortcomings.Nate Winchesterhttp://natewinchester.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13522238.post-1135785787728205422005-12-28T11:03:00.000-05:002005-12-28T11:03:00.000-05:00great reviews! thanks. the one below looks good al...great reviews! thanks. the one below looks good also.Fredhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01262662173303042998noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13522238.post-1135776815282760172005-12-28T08:33:00.000-05:002005-12-28T08:33:00.000-05:00I had the same feeling with The Great Divorce ... ...I had the same feeling with The Great Divorce ... that kind of jumbled together problem. However, although I like Niven and Pournelle I never have read Inferno. Thanks for the recommendation. I'll have to pick that up and compare the two.Julie D.https://www.blogger.com/profile/08384291674560438678noreply@blogger.com
