Описание:

The Light Princess--the princess who "lost her gravity"--has been essential fiction for several generations of children. This new edition is a companion volume (same page size, similar design) to our edition of The Golden Key, of which Publishers' Weekly said: "Maurice Sendak lights the way through MacDonald's Kingdom with the most mystical, the most poetic pictures of his distinguished career." Now Sendak has made the pictures The Light Princess always deserved to have.
This is the only separate edition available that preserves the authentic text; it is neither cut nor edited nor "improved" in any way.

Описание:

A classic, allegorical fairy tale from one of the forefathers of modern fantasy literature, The Golden Key--first published as part of George MacDonald's story collection Dealings with the Fairies--is presented in this special edition featuring the author's complete text and lavish illustrations by Maurice Sendak, the Caldecott Medal-winning creator of Where the Wild Things Are.

The young boy Mossy embarks on a quest through the woods, seeking the keyhole which fits the magical golden key he discovered at the end of the rainbow. Along the way, he meets the girl Tangle, and each must undertake a journey through shadowy valleys and mountains, guided by the Old Men of the Sea, Earth, and Fire, before reaching their final destination.

With an Afterword by Pulitzer Prize-winning poet, W. H. Auden

The magical, the fairy story...may be made a vehicle of Mystery. This at least is what George MacDonald attempted, achieving stories of power and beauty when he succeeded, as in The Golden Key.--J. R. R. Tolkien

Описание:

Known as one of the most ethereal children's fantasies by George MacDonald, At the Back of the North Wind has been a favorite among families for over a century. MacDonald, a Scottish author and Christian minister, is most known for his unique children's fairy tales, blended with lessons on faith and morality. His work has influenced many major literary figures, such as Lewis Carroll, G. K. Chesterton, and C. S. Lewis.

In his children's book At the Back of the North Wind, published in 1871, Diamond, a sweet young boy who comes from a poor family, is swept away by the North Wind. After he befriends this kind, maternal-like spirit, she takes him on different adventures that call for the North Wind. During these adventures, Diamond learns that the North Wind both helps people and creates disaster, an image of God's will through life and death, as everything always ends up okay by the end of the night.

Like many of MacDonald's popular stories, his writing is able to raise questions of theology and philosophy in ways that children can understand and learn from. At the Back of the North Wind is a fairy tale of a different kind, without princesses or goblins, and has touched children all over the world with its beautiful portrayal of spirituality within fantasy.
