A review by xenobio
Lilith by George MacDonald

3.0

This is my husband's favourite book and I can't quite figure out why. For some reason I'm OK with George MacDonald's allegorical work in his children's books - The Princess and Curdie is one of my favourite kids' books to the point that my cat is named Lina - but it seems rather heavy-handed and tedious in an adult book. What I do like about this, however, is the dreamlike style and fantastic visual images.
