The key to Williams’ mystically oriented theological thought, *Descent into Hell* (arguably Williams’ greatest novel) is a multidimensional story about human beings who shut themselves up in their own narcissistic projections, so that they are no longer able to love, to ‘co-inhere.’ The result is a veritable hell.

Vanrensalier (verified owner) –
Descent into Hell is a fictional interpretation of Galatians 6.2 – Bear one another’s burdens. However, Chs Williams takes that up as a spiritual, if not sacramental reality. This story changed forever my view of what it means to bear one another’s burdens. Williams also demonstrates the insidious self-destroying effect of lust. And, the merciful power of self-sacrifice. The story is complex and somewhat difficult to read but well worth the effort.
