C. S. Lewis wrote that, "Looking for God - or Heaven - by exploring space is like reading or seeing all Shakespeare's plays in the hope that you will find Shakespeare."

In it we contemplate a theme that runs through the whole of Lewis' oeuvre, namely, that our Post-Modern world has ears but can't hear, has eyes but cannot see.
