J. CostaA charming and touching childrens novel that I didn’t discover until age 52, it was written in England by a former Congregationalist minister in the time of Queen Victoria . It is the story of a frail, impoverished child and his family facing difficult circumstances in Dickensian London. While on the surface it seems a simple story, it is a stylistically sophisticated mix of realism and surrealism with interposed extended dream passages, original fairy tales, and mantric nursery rhymes. Its clear purpose is in moral and religious education, written to affirm both the existence and goodness of God and the essential goodness of His creation. Never facile or preachy, the author confronts the presence of evil and adversity, and shows considerable psychological insight in the treatment of his characters. I suspect that it would be difficult for today’s elementary students to read and understand the work without assistance because of its style and the alienness of its world. Older, more worldly and pseudo sophisticated middle schoolers may find it naïve or jejune. However I would encourage it for the special child and adults who still have some sense of wonder left in themselves. This particular edition is handsome and an excellent value. The novel’s otherworldly magic is enhanced by the many original illustrations by preraphaelite artist, Arthur Hughes. I will be giving a copy to a right person this Christmas.5 of 5 people found the following review helpful.George MacDonald adaptation: respectful, accurate, enjoyableBy bmuseOther reviewers have pointed out that At The Back Of The North Wind is not exactly the same in this radio-broadcast version as it is in MacDonald's book. This is strictly true. The book has some exuberant, exalted descriptive passages about traveling in the embrace of the North Wind through the sky, which words have been replaced by the soundtrack, complete with post-Romantic symphony orchestra. And yes, some fables and stories interpolated by MacDonald himself have been removed as well. In short, decisions have been made in order to fit At The Back Of The North Wind for a performance to be listened to with one's undivided attention as in the theater or in a concert hall, rather than the bedtime story savored in the privacy of the family home. So this is not the same relaxing, cozy experience which some grownups demand for their children. Rather this adaptation demands a little more of its audience, and gives much in return.Juliet Stevenson's North Wind is thoroughly theatrical, as one might expect from the distinguished, award-winning British actress (the premiere production of Death And The Maiden, for example, for which she was an award winner); she is also a seasoned audio-reader, with multiple credits for audio versions of Jane Austen novels. If her laugh strikes one previous reviewer as -- what was the word -- nasty or something, one must remember that the North Wind is, amongst other things, the Angel of Death; she is not exactly going to sound like Billie Burke as Glinda the Good Witch of the North from the Wizard of Oz, after all!Thank Providence for the presence of the late lamented actor Tom Fleming, a lifelong native of Edinburgh, whose turn as the Narrator/Storyteller of At The Back Of The North Wind came near the very end of his long, illustrious career as a commentator and performer. Though Fleming adheres faithfully to the King's English of MacDonald's book throughout, his Scottish accent is unmistakeable, and his vocal presence is not a clipped chilly English character, but avuncular to the point of devoted paternal affection, perfectly suited to the Aberdeenshire-born MacDonald.And rest assured, MacDonald's moral message and multi-layered spirituality, both light and shadow, are presented intact. MacDonald, after all, cut his story-telling teeth on both the intense tragic drama of traditional Scottish ballads (eg "Owen Kemp") and on the Romanticism of such Germans as Hoffman (The Golden Pot), Novalis (Heinrich von Ofterdingen), Goethe, Schiller, and above all Heine. What I regret is that the two dreams, one for each of two sleeping children, have been either cut or drastically shortened for the radio play. It is true that the dreams are highly visual experiences with much subjective description, and these do not translate well to an audio medium. Nevertheless, as W. H. Auden has so sensitively observed in his critique of George MacDonald himself, the descriptions of dreaming-reality are amongst the most extraordinary and noteworthy passages in all of MacDonald's writing; this adaptation is the poorer without them. With At The Back Of The North Wind, MacDonald created a tale with deep roots, a sturdy trunk, and, improbably, wings, to carry the story high and far over time and space: one of his best, which is saying something.21 of 21 people found the following review helpful.Good book: KINDLE formatting of this version is awfulBy SJR in DenverI'm torn here. I personally get frustrated when the rating for a book is brought down by someone rating something other than the book itself, but I do feel obligated to warn anyone else away from downloading this book to their Kindle. If and when songs or poems are quoted in this book, they are either omitted entirely, or formatted without any punctuation or line breaks. I recommend that you find a copy of this book that has been more carefully edited.So, I'm rating the book five stars, because George MacDonald is almost certainly worth it -- but I strongly recommend you download one of the other Kindle versions of this book.I'm a new Kindle user, and my biggest and most consistent frustration has been the typos and poor formatting I find in many of the books -- free or purchased. When I run across such poor formatting and other errors, I will begin to make my experience known. I hope others will do the same.See all 177 customer reviews...
