New audio book:"The Screwtape Letters," by C.S. Lewis, read by John Cleese; Audio Literature, three cassettes, four hours, unabridged:
The esteemed British author C.S. Lewis, who would have turned 100 this past November, remains popular, both for his acclaimed fairy tales, "The Chronicles of Narnia," as well as his theological works, "Mere Christianity" and "The Screwtape Letters."
The latter is a classic satire that chronicles a series of letters from Screwtape, one of hell's middle managers, to his young nephew, Wormwood, whom he is teaching the ancient art of tempting souls. John Cleese, the genius responsible for such TV and film comedies as "Monty Python and the Holy Grail," "Fawlty Towers" and "A Fish Called Wanda," was a Grammy Award finalist for his exceptional narration of "The Screwtape Letters."
