Publisher's Description

In this Radio Theatre audio drama adaptation of George MacDonald's classic story, a beautiful woman known as the North Wind blows through a small village in Victorian London, and everyday lives are mysteriously enveloped by a power and a glory. Along the way, she visits a poor stable boy named Diamond and takes him with her on her journeys. At the Back of the North Wind explores the place of death in our lives, social injustice, and our deep need for love and forgiveness.

C. S. Lewis, author of the classic Chronicles of Narnia series, said of MacDonald, “What he does best is fantasy—fantasy that hovers between the allegorical and the mythopoeic. And this, in my opinion, he does better than any man. MacDonald is the greatest genius of this kind whom I know.”

Our family enjoyed this audio book on a long car journey. Our kids are 8, 10 and 12. My husband and I enjoyed listening to the story with them. It is a beautiful story.

I received the CD Theater production as a Christmas gift. We played it in the car during our holiday travels. My 20+ year old adult son, who was traveling with us, suggested we put in the second CD. The truths represented here are deep. Knowing the solid Christian heritage of the writer makes the abstract imaging enjoyable to me.

I bought this without knowing what the story was about and just hoped that my children would like it. They did! It gets played every night whilst going to bed! They really have enjoyed the story of Diamond and his adventures to the back of the North Wind. I would highly recommend this to anyone who has young children or just the young at heart. We all enjoy Focus on the Family Radio Theatre CD's.
