About this listen

George MacDonald's stories and sermons have been like a magic pool of rejuvenating waters. Those who wash themselves in his prose cleanse their imaginations. For many, this begins a process of new faith or deeper appreciation of Christ. That was the path the beloved Christian author C.S. Lewis took, when, to use Lewis' own words, MacDonald "baptized his imagination."

In this short introduction to the life and works of MacDonald exclusively written for Hovel Audio, renowned scholar Rolland Hein is your guide through MacDonald's Fairyland. You will explore the symbols, motifs, and themes that run through MacDonald's stories, such as "The Wise Woman", "The Golden Key", and "The Princess and the Goblin". Moreover, Hein introduces you to MacDonald's ability to take his own imagination into the pulpit, where he preached many powerfully moving sermons. You are sure to experience a renewed sense of respect for one of Christianity's best storytellers.

I don’t read biographies but I was recently given a book of Macdonald’s quotes written by C.S. Lewis. Lewis being one of my all time favorite writers credits Macdonald with greatly influencing his writing so I started reading his books as well. After diving into his books I became interested in the man and this short bio has helped me understand what he believed and why his work touches me.

I liked how it set his individual works in context of what was happening in his life. I like that it was a short overview, although as a huge fan I will also go on to the full length biographies.
