Title:    The Screwtape Letters

From the Editors' Preface: "C. S. Lewis The Screwtape Letters is one of the great incongruities of modern literature: a moral tract which was also a sensational bestseller. Cast in the form of a one-way correspondence - the helpful letters of an otherworldly-wise demon to his nephew, an apprentice in the business - it has a rich and civilized wit. But the book is not exactly sidesplitting. Nor is it salacious. Nor shocking. Nor even novel. So why did over half a million Americans buy Screwtape when most people in the book publishing business would unhesitatingly have labeled it a most unlikely candidate to succeed? Any attempt at an answer must be regarded as highly tentative, a mere shadow of a hypothesis, one requiring a brief excursion into theology and the morality of modern times."
