What this book is about

Mr. Vane follows a mysterious figure through a magical mirror into a parallel world where time and death work differently. There he encounters Lilith, the figure of dark feminine power, and is drawn into a cosmic struggle between good and evil. MacDonald's 1895 fantasy influenced C.S. Lewis and Tolkien profoundly; dreamlike and theologically rich.
