Lilith - George MacDonald - 文宇宙｜Bookniverse

Written by George MacDonald, the "grandfather of modern fantasy", Lilith invites you to step into a world where the reflection in the glass is more real than reality! When Mr Vane follows a mysterious raven through a mirror, he is plunged into a surreal landscape of shifting shadows and haunting beauty. Lilith is a psychological journey that explores the thin line between life and death, pride and surrender. As Vane confronts an ancient, cold-hearted queen, he must decide if he is willing to lose himself to find the truth.****************************George MacDonald, born in Huntly, Scotland, in 1824, was a man who lived between two worlds: the intellectual world of Victorian science and the imaginative world of deep spiritual faith. Before writing Lilith in 1895, MacDonald had already established himself as a brilliant poet and a mentor to some of the greatest writers of his age. However, MacDonald’s life was also touched by great tragedy, as he lost several of his children and his own health to illness. These personal sorrows deeply influenced Lilith, which was one of the final major works of his long career. MacDonald’s unique perspective as a former clergyman allowed him to weave moral questions into his fantasy worlds.
