C.S. Lewis: Why Not Let Susan Go?

  1. He didn't do any such thing. The way was still open to her; all she had to do was take it. Remember, she was left alive at the end of "The Last Battle," and it was to provide an illustration of the sort of person who rejects God, but still has the invitation to return. She was a twenty-one year-old woman whose entire family was lost in a terrible accident; therefore, she could one of two ways: reject Aslan utterly and bind herself to the temporal and physical, or seek His comfort, strength, and healing (all of which she had known before) and eventually be reunited with her parents, siblings, cousin, and friends.
