Ugh
2 stars
Lots of beautiful prose but it starts to lose its charm when one of the characters starts ranting against dualism moments before revealing he is possessed by a demon.
At points I felt like CS Lewis was stopping the fiction to beat me over the head with his belief system — like with the long rant about gender and how mountains are metaphysically masculine, yada yada.
I haven’t read Paradise Lost so I suspect a lot of stuff from this book is lost on me from a “oh look he is referencing great literature” standpoint.
