The Screwtape Letters by C.S. Lewis portrayed evil in a way that I found extremely interesting. A demon named Screwtape writes letters to his nephew, Wormwood, to guide him on trying to keep a human away from God. He tells Wormwood that he should keep his “Patient” busy and never allow him time to get close with God. The way that evil is portrayed is interesting because it is never manifested to the human. It is just a force prompting them to do certain things that will eventually lead them to turn away from God. I found this interesting because of how meticulous the demons were in their planning to convert just one human. I also found it interesting how the demons portrayed God as the “Enemy” and also how they did not understand the concept
