Introduction by C. S. Lewis

“Lilith is equal if not superior to the best of Poe,” wrote W. H. Auden in his introduction to the 1954 reprint of George MacDonald’s Lilith, which was first published in 1895.

George MacDonald (1824-1905) was a Scottish author, poet, and Christian Congregationalist minister. He became a pioneering figure in modern fantasy literature. George MacDonald’s imaginative storytelling and deeply Christian themes profoundly influenced the literary world. C. S. Lewis regarded MacDonald as his “master,” and J. R. R. Tolkien–who read the Princess stories to his children–found literary inspiration in MacDonald’s works.
