However, it works great as a play. The announcer who warned us all to turn off our cell phones got to say "Welcome to hell" in his intro. Which is always a good way to start a stage production. And the staging was funny, the lighting intense, and the dialogue thought-provoking.
“Do not be deceived, Wormwood. Our cause is never more in danger than when a human, no longer desiring, but still intending, to do our Enemy's will, looks round upon a universe from which every trace of Him seems to have vanished, and asks why he has been forsaken, and still obeys.”
- C.S. Lewis
I too have tried to read that book and had your same thoughts. I wish I could have seen the play. I like the theory of the book and really wanted it not to be boring. Nice Quote.
ReplyDeleteIf it comes to Boise, you should see it! The play version is lively and very well done. I'm glad I'm not the only one who couldn't make it through the book.
