One of C. S. Lewisâ works of fiction, or more specifically allegory, this book is clearly modelled upon Bunyanâ s Pilgrimâ s Progress, as Lewis cleverly satirizes different sections of the Church.

In 1954 he became Professor of Mediaeval and Renaissance Literature at Cambridge. C S Lewis was for many years an atheist. He describes his conversion in Surprised by Joy: "In the Trinity Term of 1929 I gave in, and admitted that God was God... perhaps the most dejected and reluctant convert in all England."
