Title: Intelligent symbolism from Lewis
Review: This is the first book of CS Lewis' Space Trilogy that continues with "Perelandra" and finishes with "That Hideous Strength". The book imagines a Universe with intelligent life on planets other than Earth, where Earthly humans are the only fallen (sinful) creatures. Three travelers from Earth (Dr. Ransom, Dr. Weston and Dr. Devine ) visit one of these planets without sin, and the book explores the differences between the created before and after the fall. Is Lewis attempting to ascertain what the Creator had in mind for His creation? Maybe. Is he trying to portray what heaven may hold in the afterlife? Possibly. Regardless, the book is my favorite of the trilogy for its nice pace, rich characters and exploration into the mind of God.
