The Great Divorce: A Dream is a theological dream vision in which Lewis reflects on the Christian conceptions of Heaven and Hell. The title refers to William Blake’s poem The Marriage of Heaven and Hell. The Great Divorce was first printed as a serial in an Anglican newspaper called The Guardian, 10 November, 1944 through 13 April, 1945 as “Who Goes Home? Or The Grand Divorce” and soon thereafter in book form. Six settings of the work currently exist.
