The hero of the sun-drenched hours, he looks godlike with his
golden hair aglow in the sun as he hunts the wild beasts of field
and wood. Yet as the light flees at the onset of evening, his
self-assurance and bravado fade with the light . . . and he finds
himself beset by terrors he cannot reign.
Then he discovers solace, in that terrifying night -- for within
the depths of his fears he encounters a strange, beautiful creature
who offers him comfort -- a girl, who is as much a creature of the
dark hours as he is of sunlit days.
Watching over both their lives is red-haired witch Watho -- who
with guilt and malice in her heart first cares for the two youths
-- then jealously plots their destruction!
George MacDonald (1824-1905), Scottish author of "Phantastes,"
here relates the romance of the unusual lovers Photogen and
Nycteris, in a land drenched in magic.
