Perelаndrа is Lewis’s imаginative retelling оf the stоry оf the temptation of Eve, transposed to the planet Venus. Countless details are changed in addition to the location, perhaps most notably the presence of Ransom. Consider ONLY the interactions of Weston / the Un-Man with the Green Lady. Discuss one significant aspect of their interactions that you think could have parallels / resonances for Christians who dwell on our planet and face temptations today. Please include in your answer a quotation (with citation) from Perelandra.  Your quotation should support at least part of your answer, but does not need to support or relate to all of your answer.
