Lewis and G.K. Chesterton. The Poetical Works of George MacDonald: In Two Volumes presents a comprehensive gathering of his verse, from lyrical meditations on faith and nature to powerful narrative poems that bridge the earthly and the divine. This Fine-Paper Edition, published by the distinguished London house of Chatto \u0026amp; Windus in 1911, stands as a landmark collection that chronicles the full arc of MacDonald's poetic achievement with elegance and scholarly care.\n\nMacDonald's verse is imbued with a rare spiritual intensity, drawing on Scottish landscapes, Christian mysticism, and a profound sense of longing for transcendence that distinguishes his work from his Victorian contemporaries. His poetry argues, with quiet but irresistible conviction, that the material world is but a shadow of a deeper, more luminous reality. Presented across two meticulously produced volumes, this edition offers readers both the breadth and depth of a poet whose influence quietly underpins much of modern fantasy and Christian literature — leaving one to wonder how such a voice could ever have been overlooked.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49269332639963,"sku":"2026100009223-SECONDHAND","price":120.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/315fe3f2-760b-4f0c-86e9-002fdbddd004.png?v=1788998217","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026100009223-secondhand-the-poetical-works-of-george-macdonald-in-two-volumes","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
