Lilith was the last and most complex fantasy work by the Scottish writer, George MacDonald. He felt so strongly the need to get it right that he rewrote it five times. The tale is one of redemption. It’s the story of, Mr. Vane, who takes a mystical journey through a mirror to an alternate world where he meets among others, Lilith, the first wife of Adam according to Jewish folklore, who left Adam and took up with the Devil and is now herself a demon. MacDonald stands the legend of Lilith on it’s head asking the question: could even a demon be redeemed? It’s a fascinating work full of symbolism and metaphor as all good fantasy tales are.
