Publisher's Description

Lewis addresses the question which tortures every generation - why must we suffer?

For centuries people have been tormented by one question above all - 'If God is good and all-powerful, why does he allow his creatures to suffer pain?' And what of the suffering of animals, who neither deserve pain nor can be improved by it?

The greatest Christian thinker of our time sets out to disentangle this knotty issue. With his signature wealth of compassion and insight, C.S. Lewis offers answers to these crucial questions and shares his hope and wisdom to help heal a world hungering for a true understanding of human nature.

Beautifully repackaged as part of the C.S. Lewis Signature Classic Range.

Commendations

‘It is really a pleasure to be able to praise a book unreserverdly, and that is just what I can do with The Problem of Pain.’Guardian‘A really remarkable book. It says so many things which seem to me to need saying today. It will help many people to revise what they had taken for granted and face possibilities which had not occurred to them.’Spectator
