Lilith
by George MacDonald
"Equal to Poe, if not superior, than the best," poet W. H. Oden went crazy about this classic Victorian novel. A fantasy novel rich in symbolism and suspense for adults and considered one of the most important visionary novels of the nineteenth century. Mr. Wayne, a recent heir to his parents' English country estate, was concerned about the visions of an old gentleman in his library. Intrigued, he follows the old man through the passage and discovers a dusty mirror that takes him on a spiritual journey to another world. As she travels through time through scenes ranging from the beautiful to the grotesque, she encounters a series of mysteries that reveal a deeper reality. Is Wayne dreaming? or go crazy? With classic themes like good and evil, identity and free will, pain and liberation, Lilith is an allegory that is thought-provoking, sometimes confusing, will challenge your mind and stay with you long after the last page turns.
