Till We Have Faces by C.S. Lewis with Oliver Traldi

from Christians Reading Classics · host Mere Orthodoxy

What does it mean to love someone well — and what does it cost when that love curls inward? Nadya Williams and Oliver Traldi discuss C.S. Lewis's Till We Have Faces, tracing how Lewis reframes the myth of Cupid and Psyche to expose the jealousy beneath even the most devoted love, the limits of philosophy before the divine, and what it means to render an account of your own life.—Christians Reading Classics is a podcast from Mere Orthodoxy and is listener-supported.
