Reseña del libro "The Princess and the Goblin (en Inglés)"
C.S. Lewis once wrote of encountering a sense of the holy while reading the works of George MacDonald. This assessment may be correct when it comes to "The Princess and the Goblin." Anyone who reads this book with profit by having done so. First, and perhaps most importantly "The Princess and the Goblin" is a delightful story. There is a lot of the "just plain fun reading" stuff going on in this story. There is also a lot more. MacDonald has buried a lot of treasures within the cave walls of his story. If the reader looks carefully while following the fates of Irene and Curdie, they will find these jewels just sitting there shining in the darkness, ready to be mined. There are nuggets of wisdom to be gained in the dialogue, the narration, and in the overall arch of the story. More than this, MacDonald's story features the best of what was Romantic literature and blends it with the greatest characteristics of fairy tales--turning convention on its head. Whereas in fairy tales wisdom is associated with the old and knowledgeable, wisdom is here associated with innocence. While in traditional tales, it is the hero who saves the princess, here the princess must rescue the hero. Fans of modern fantasy may be used to Providential Guidance being related to male literary figures such as Tolkien's Gandalf, Lewis' Aslan. Here the figure is Feminine--the Grandmother. In the process of playing off of and twisting traditional Romantic literature and fairy tales MacDonald manages to transcend both genres and create a truly original work of wonder.
