Too Hedonistic

C. S. Lewis, in a 1941 letter to a theology professor at Oxford, alluding to his book The Problem of Pain--

I wasn't writing on the Problem of Pleasure! If I had been you might find my views too hedonistic. I would say that every pleasure (even the lowest) is a likeness to, even, in its restricted mode, a foretaste of, the end for which we exist, the fruition of God. But is it not also, here and now, the road to that fruition for fallen creatures?
