That Hideous Strength

Perelandra - CS Lewis
The Chronicles of Narnia - CS Lewis
Wrinkle in Time - Madeline L'Engle

This book said it could be read by itself without having read the two previous books, but I feel like there is way too much terminology and history that I'm missing to understand this book completely.

Lewis uses multiple points of view in this text. At one point he uses "you" as a p.o.v. to describe the forest. Was this a technique designed to engage the reader in the scenery or just the simplest way to describe the setting?
