No Compromise #44: The Day Boy and the Night Girl by George MacDonald, Part 2

Jenny and I discuss a famous "fairytale" by the man C. S. Lewis called his "Master," George MacDonald, The Day Boy and the Night Girl, or The Romance of Photogen and Nycteris, a story rich in meaning and delight. This story picks up on many of the important themes of Paradise Lost, so we thought it a fitting way to close out our series on Milton. We pick up the thread of last week's incomplete discussion and run with it!
