Overview

George MacDonald is the Christian author who most influenced C. S. Lewis. Lewis particularly delighted in the "mythopoeic art" of MacDonald's fantasy works that "hits us at a level deeper than our thoughts or even our passions." G. K. Chesterton referred to MacDonald as "a true mystic to whom the supernatural was natural." MacDonald authored some fifty volumes of fantasy and fiction novels, children's books, poetry, essays, and sermons. He animated the Christian faith through story-telling in a manner that appeals to the imaginative senses, and he used imagery and language that resonate with the spirit of God deep within. The selections for this anthology are those that best exhibit the unique mystical quality of MacDonald's fiction writing that draws people closer to the heart of God. An important feature of MacDonald's mysticism is his belief that nature is a revelation of God. His most evocative prose writing, and many of the selections for this anthology, are set in nature. Selections are presented from a wide variety of MacDonald's fiction writing, and for those who are not familiar with his books, this anthology can serve as a succinct and accessible introduction to his great body of work.
