PhantastesIntroduction by C. S. Lewis In October 1857, George MacDonald wrote what he described as a kind of fairy tale, in the hope that it will pay me better than the more evidently serious work. This was Phantastes one of MacDonald's most important works; a work which so overwhelmed C. S. Lewis that a few hours after he began reading it he knew he had crossed a great frontier. The book is about the narrator's (Anodos) dream like adventures in fairyland,
Introduction by C. S. LewisIn October 1857, George MacDonald wrote what he described as -a kind of fairy tale, in the hope that it will pay me better than the more evidently serious work.- This was Phantastes -- one of MacDonald's most important works; a work which so overwhelmed C. S. Lewis that a few hours after he began reading it he knew he -had crossed a great frontier.-
The book is about the narrator's (Anodos) dream-like adventures in fairyland, where he confronts tree-spirits and the shadow, sojourns to the palace of the fairy queen, and searches for the spirit of the earth. The tale is vintage MacDonald, conveying a profound sadness and a poignant longing for death.

A childhood favorite that stuck with me.
Format: Hardcover
I only read this book once, spread up over multiple days as a dyslexic kids who really had trouble reading and limited book options. This book stuck out to my brain for DECADES now. even now when i see a little cow figure i remember this silly little book. now will I promise this book will change your kids life? no of course not, but i will say out of a sea of “see spot run” and basic moral lessons that flood targeted kids books this cute little story has the heart that never makes it a chore to read.
