Father and daughters

(4 Sterne)

This story tells of the vicar and his relation to his children especially his 2 oldest daughters. The author sheds light on the cares and concerns of a father for his children and his care of them as spiritual as well as physical people. He spends much time talking of the vicar's thoughts in relation to what he is experiencing. He provides a window into the vicar's soul showing his love for Christ, his desires for others to know him and the care he takes to make Him understood by the common person.

(5 Sterne)

George MacDonald is perhaps my favorite author of all time, after The Holy Spirit. I find though that I have listened out of order and most necessarily go back and listen to the first of the series. The first GM book that I ever read was Ranald Bannerman's Boyhood, which I understand was somewhat autobiographical. This work of literature was nearly impossible to put down. With very few exceptions, The Seaboard Parish is very aptly narrated.

(4 Sterne)

A book from a pastors view full of sermons. Once in a while there is a profound thought but it’s long. Then it seems even he is tired of talking and finishes abruptly. Still, for it’s time, a good read.

Very Slow

(3 Sterne)

This is a long and drawn out story. I enjoyed the different readers, though. It was a good book to fall asleep to.

Most exceptional

(5 Sterne)

The story line itself is mediocre or less. However, the wisdom contained herein is of a form of spiritual genius Highly recommend.

(5 Sterne)

this is the second time I've listened and I am so glad I did. he is an awesome writer, one of my favourites

(4 Sterne)

I so appreciate how MacDonald weaves thought and feeling, spiritual truth and nature, and the inner lives of his characters together.

delightful Read

(5 Sterne)

Another gem! A bit of a slow start, but still full of spiritual life worth savoring. Wonderful writing.
