The CS Lewis Podcast #198 CS Lewis’ Final Novel: Ancient Myth and Modern Relevance

michael oppizzi

CS Lewis considered Till We Have Faces his best work, yet it remains one of his least understood. Why did he write it in the 1950s, and why does it still resonate today? In this episode, Ruth Jackson speaks with Michael Oppizzi about the novel’s historical and literary context, its deep psychological and spiritual themes, and how its exploration of self-deception, silence, and the search for truth speaks powerfully to modern readers. They also dive into the presence of medieval planetary imagery in the novel and discuss why Till We Have Faces remains one of Lewis’s most profound—and relevant—works.
