C.S. Lewis’s The Screwtape Letters explores how subtle temptations and moral lapses lead individuals away from goodness. Presented as letters from the devil Screwtape to his nephew Wormwood, the book reveals strategies like exploiting doubt, distractions, and self-justification to gradually erode a person’s morality. Screwtape emphasizes fostering selfishness, nihilism, and intellectual pride, while using distractions like hunger or lust to disrupt spiritual reflection.

While rooted in Christian theology, the book’s insights are universal, offering valuable lessons even for non-believers. It highlights how small, seemingly harmless choices can lead to self-destruction, emphasizing the need for self-awareness and integrity. Despite Wormwood’s efforts, the patient’s connection with a virtuous Christian woman brings him closer to goodness, underscoring the resilience of love and faith against evil.
