The Great Divorce
I'm reading "The Great Divorce" in a study group.
Who else has read it? Thoughts?

That was the one with the bus ride to Hell, right?

Yes - It's very good. And a quick read, too.

Very good book! It has some real insights in it. I enjoy it every time I read it. I like the concept how people get farther and farther away from everything as they get farther from God, and how we're too "wimpy" to handle reality - how the very grass hurts our feet in heaven until we're made stronger.
