Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Lilith is George MacDonald's dark visionary fantasy of dream, death, repentance, spiritual awakening, and the perilous search for true life. Mr. Vane, heir to an old house and a mysterious library, follows the enigmatic Mr. Raven through a mirror into a strange other world of sleeping souls, lost children, shadowed forests, spectral presences, and the proud, terrible figure of Lilith. What begins as a journey into wonder becomes a profound confrontation with self-will, suffering, surrender, and redemption.First published in 1895, Lilith is one of MacDonald's most powerful and difficult works, standing beside Phantastes as a foundational text of modern fantasy. Its dreamlike structure, Christian symbolism, mythic imagery, and haunting treatment of life, death, and salvation influenced later writers of fantasy and spiritual romance. For readers of classic fantasy, Victorian literature, Christian allegory, mythic fiction, dark fantasy, and the roots of modern imaginative literature, Lilith remains one of George MacDonald's central achievements.
