William OFlaherty Screwtape Facts, Special Feature
 Screwtape Facts 46

The Screwtape Letter is one of many great books by C.S. Lewis. As the publication of my book about it draws near I’m sharing a fact about it each day.

There are five other demons mentioned in the
rest of the letters. They are Scabtree, Slubgob,
Slumtrimpet, Triptweeze and Toadpipe (a
scribe mentioned in only the 22nd letter).

ADVANCE PRAISE FOR C.S. LEWIS GOES TO HELL

“Presenting The Screwtape Letters as a theatrical stage adaptation has had the wonderful benefit of inspiring hundreds if not thousands of theatre-goers to read Lewis’ classic novel.  As a result we are often asked to suggest a study guide to help people wrestle more deeply with the themes and insights behind the brilliant, morally inverted universe that Lewis created.  William O’Flaherty’s thoughtful, copious and insightful volume is what I will be recommending them.  It is the best of its kind.”
Max McLean,  Artistic Director of Fellowship for Performing Arts, New York, NY

“A good study guide is surprisingly difficult: it must combine accuracy with imagination, it must be generative without being speculative. O’Flaherty delivers. ​I am genuinely excited ​about this important resource.”
​​Diana Pavlac Glyer, Professor of English and author of Bandersnatch: C. S. Lewis, J. R. R. Tolkien, and the Creative Collaboration of the Inklings

Lewis Goes to Hell by William O’Flaherty is precisely as advertised. ​Part encyclopedia, part plot summary, part analysis, and part discussion guide, this book is a valuable resource for both an individual reader and for a small group interested in exploring in more detail Lewis’s satirical masterpiece.”
Don King, Professor of English and editor of The Collected Poems of C. S. Lewis: A Critical Edition

Anyone leading a small group study will find this to be a valuable tool.
