Descripción:
Paperback. Phantastes (1858) is a groundbreaking fantasy novel by Scottish author George MacDonald, often considered one of the earliest works of modern fantasy. The story follows a young man named Anodos, who stumbles into a magical, dreamlike world filled with mystical creatures, enchanted forests, and deep allegorical meaning. As Anodos embarks on his quest for self-discovery, he confronts inner darkness, beauty, and the nature of reality. This imaginative and symbolic tale profoundly influenced later writers, including C.S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien, and remains a classic of fantasy literature. "Phantastes" is one of the all-time classic fantasy novels, a "dream-romance" by the author of "Lilith." The works of George MacDonald influenced all who followed, from William Morris to C.S. Lewis to J.R.R. Tolkien. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. N° de ref. del artículo 9781434498731
