The Great Divorce
The Timeless Novel about a Bus Ride from Hell to Heaven

Auteur : Clive Staples Lewis

C. S. Lewis’s dazzling allegory about heaven and hell – and the chasm fixed between them – is one of his most brilliantly imaginative tales, as he takes issue with the ideas in William Blake’s The Marriage of Heaven and Hell.

In a dream, the narrator boards a bus on a drizzly afternoon and embarks on an incredible voyage through Heaven and Hell. He meets a host of supernatural beings far removed from his expectations, from the disgruntled, ghostly inhabitants of Hell to the angels and souls who dwell on the plains of Heaven.

This powerful, exquisitely written fantasy is one of C. S. Lewis’s most enduring works of fiction and a profound meditation on good and evil.

Lewis Clive Staples

L'auteur

C. S. Lewis (1898-1963), converti au christianisme sous l’influence de son ami Tolkien, fait partie de ces écrivains qui suscitèrent par leurs ouvrages un véritable renouveau de la foi chrétienne. Professeur de littérature du Moyen-Âge et de la Renaissance à l’Université d’Oxford, doué d’un esprit exceptionnellement brillant, servi par une redoutable logique et un style sobre et concis, il connut une très grande popularité dans les milieux anglophones. Ses œuvres de fiction, notamment Les chroniques de Narnia, jouissent d’un immense succès.
