[Amazing Stories] Psychological Pitfalls in "The Great Divorce"

For my first Amazing Stories post since 2017, I've gone back to what once were my roots on that site: classic science fiction stories discussed in modern social science terms. This time, it's the speculative morality play The Great Divorce by C.S. Lewis. As a lifelong Narnia fan who also enjoyed The Screwtape Letters, this book was an obvious pick.

See how our protagonist, who's on a mystical bus ride from Hell to Heaven, undergoes not only a spiritual voyage but also a voyage past his own psychological biases and heuristics.
