The Golden Key by George MacDonald

5.0

I always adored this book as a child. The surrealism was entrancing to me then, and it still is now. I was afraid that in re-reading it I'd find it more logical, find some sort of straightforward sense to it that would ruin the magic--but I didn't really. It was just as mysterious and meandering as the first time I read it. This is the one time that MacDonald's abrupt ending really does work. Such a lovely experience.
