Lilith

- Illustrated The darkest and most reprinted of George MacDonald’s works, Lilith explores how people dream and search for salvation. This is a story of divine punishment and hard won salvation. Mr. Vane owns a library which seems to be haunted by the former librarian, a raven-like individual who moves along the edges of his sight. The ghost knew Mr. Vane’s father and offers hints into the parallel universe he once visited. Vane follows this raven wraith into this new universe. There, he learns of a house of beds where dreams sleep until the end of the world. A myriad of creatures occupy this new reality, one Mr. Vane intends to explore despite the danger.
