Fantastic Worlds and Fantastic People

George MacDonald and G.K. Chesterton profoundly influenced some of the twentieth century's favorite authors. Not only did their stories flow through the imaginations of authors such as Dorothy Sayers, C.S. Lewis, and J.R.R. Tolkien, but MacDonald's and Chesterton's literary criticism also played an important role in the conversations (and arguments) among the Inklings and their friends about the subjects, methods, and purpose of the art of literature. This book brings MacDonald's and Chesterton's views on literature into clearer focus.
