C. S. Lewis reworks the timeless myth of Cupid and Psyche into an enduring piece of contemporary fiction in this novel about the struggle between sacred and profane love. Set in the pre-Christian world of Glome on the outskirts of Greek civilization, it is a tale of two princesses: the beautiful Psyche, who is loved by the god of love himself, and Orual, Psyche’s unattractive and embittered older sister who loves Psyche with a destructive possessiveness. Her frustration and jealousy over Psyche’s fate sets Orual on the troubled path of self-discovery. Lewis’ last work of fiction, this is often considered his best by critics.

Eleştirmen yorumları

“Exerts, far beyond most novels, that combination of…wonder and attraction.”

(New York Times)

“The most significant and triumphant work that Lewis has…produced.”

(New York Herald Tribune)

“In Mr. Lewis’ sensitive hands the ancient myth retains its fascination while being endowed with new meanings, new depths, new terrors.”

(Saturday Review)

“Whenever [Wanda McCaddon] reads, a sensation of comfort creeps into the atmosphere. Her vocal clarity and understanding of the author’s meaning bring pleasure and even security to the listening of each work.”

(AudioFile)

“[McCaddon’s] reading is well paced, her voice light, soft, or strained as the action waxes and wanes.”

(Kliatt)

For me, this is C.S. Lewis' greatest book. The retelling of the legend of Cupid and Psyche is so imaginative and compelling that it makes you want to extend train journeys. The ending is profound and satisfying. Nadia May is one of the best readers on this site. A must.

Neglected masterpiece beautifully read.

This was the last of Lewis’s novels with which I came into contact, and I think it is the best. Subtle, gloriously characterised, beautiful in its way. Not easy to grasp, at its deepest levels, without reading and rereading (or listening) but totally enjoyable as a sort of historical mythological fiction in the vein of its Roman sources. It is also a deeply spiritual and imaginative work; if you know Lewis’s other fiction and especially his non-fiction you will hear echoes throughout of his main ideas about naturalism, reason, love, what it means to be human, and above all the beauty of God, the untamed lover. Wanda McCaddon’s reading is really wonderful too. For me her voice and Orual’s voice are the same thing. Altogether worth the listening time, and returning to over & again.

Lewis’s best novel, beautifully narrated.

I really enjoyed this excellent retelling of a myth that is less well-known than it used to be and, although this is somewhat subjective, the narration almost exactly recreated the way I thought the book ought to sound when I read it as a teenager.

Perfect Narrator
