The Screwtape Letters

What if a demon wrote you a how-to manual?

The Screwtape Letters is a satirical masterpiece by C.S. Lewis, presented as 31 letters from the senior demon Screwtape to his nephew Wormwood, a junior tempter. Their mission: to corrupt “the Patient,” a newly converted Christian, and secure his soul for Hell.

With wit, irony, and terrifying insight, Screwtape reveals the subtle strategies of temptation: vanity, pride, distraction, religious formalism, and the slow drift into spiritual apathy. The book never shows God directly, yet it offers one of the sharpest defenses of Christian faith ever written—by showing you the enemy’s playbook.

Funny, chilling, and deeply human, this classic exposes the small compromises that can undo a life. Read it, and you’ll never look at your own habits the same way again.
