[εις επαινον δοξης αυτου] New comment on Wisdom from Perelandra.
lilrabbi has left a new comment on your post "Wisdom from Perelandra":
The first time I read this book I was also reading The Greatness of the Kingdom. Lewis had an image of Eden and the Kingdom in his mind like few today are able. Perelandra, if not as philosophical and prophetic as That Hideous Strength nor as purely scientifictional as Out of the Silent Planet, is possibly more beautiful in its imaginings. It evokes terror and love for That which is both Terrible and Lovely.
Have you got to the end? Have you got to the blind trail? Wonders.
