It combines a Dickensian regard for the working class of mid-19th-century England with the invention of an ethereal landscape. More than a century after it was written, George MacDonald's At the Back of the North Wind continues to intrigue readers with its allegorical treatment of life and death. The great Christian writer C. S. Lewis, working a generation later, called MacDonald "the greatest genius of his kind." Find out for yourself what so impressed Lewis and countless readers.

George MacDonald (December 10, 1824- September 18, 1905) was a prolific writer, poet and Christian Congregational minister. He was a pioneering figure in the field of modern fantasy literature and the mentor of fellow writer Lewis Carroll. In addition to his fairy tales, MacDonald wrote several works of Christian theology, including several collections of sermons. MacDonald and his work profoundly influenced C.S. Lewis, J.R.R. Tolkien, and the rest of the Oxford Inklings. [url] => https://www.hoopladigital.com/title/15703194 [pa] => [publisher] => Oasis Audio [purchaseModel] => INSTANT )
