I am a great fan of anything written by George MacDonald. This is an allegory. Wonderful, as all George MacDonald's are. (  ) thesilverofhisfining | Feb 17, 2020 | At the Back of the North Wind is the 1871 children’s novel by the famous Scottish author and poet, George MacDonald. The book tells the story of a young boy named Diamond. He is a very sweet little boy who makes joy everywhere he goes. He fights despair and gloom and brings peace to his family. One night, as he is trying to sleep, Diamond repeatedly plugs up a hole in the loft (also his bedroom) wall to stop the wind from blowing in. However, he soon finds out that this is stopping the North Wind from seeing through her window. Diamond befriends her, and North Wind lets him fly with her, taking him on several adventures.
