Landlady's Master by George MacDonald, Киев

Originally titled The Elect Lady, the story of The Landlady's Master portrays a fascinating triangle of relationships as only George MacDonald could develop it. Alexa Fordyce, Andrew Ingram, and a servant girl named Dawtie have been an inseparable unit since childhood; but Alexa's father owns the land, Andrew's family are ten ants, and Dawtie is the child of a lowly cottar couple. Reaching adult- hood, their class distinctions assert demands that drive them apart.

In this story, MacDonald traces their spiritual journeys, blending in mystery and romance as the three come of age. True to his style, MacDonald also succinctly reveals his heart concerning unity and the church. Discover within these pages the refreshingly bold edict: "I don't believe that Jesus cares much for what is called the visible church. But he cares with his very Godhead for those who do as he tells them."
