Produktbeschreibung
What's Mine's Mine VOL. II introduces the Palmer family, newly arrived at their Scottish Highlands estate, and the contrasting worlds they inhabit. Through their interactions with the local inhabitants, the story explores themes of class, personal identity, and heritage. The novel opens with the Palmer family's first impressions of their grand new surroundings, particularly the opulent dining room that reflects their wealth, juxtaposed with the stunning natural landscapes outside. This contrast highlights the deeper connection some characters have to the land, as opposed to the Palmer family's superficial engagement with their new environment. Peregrine Palmer, the father and his children embody the class divide, initially perceiving the Highlands through a lens of entitlement. In contrast, the last of his clan's chiefs, struggles with the loss of his heritage amidst the changing social landscape. The novel sets the stage for intricate interpersonal dynamics that unfold between the new wealthy inhabitants and the traditional, land-rooted locals, presenting a compelling drama about wealth, identity, and tradition.

Autorenporträt
George MacDonald was a Scottish author, poet, and Christian minister, best known for his works of fantasy and fairytales. His writing, which often explores themes of spirituality, personal growth, and the power of imagination, has had a lasting influence on the development of children's literature and fantasy fiction. MacDonald's most famous works include Phantastes, The Princess and the Goblin, The Light Princess, and The Lost Princess. His fairytales, in particular, are known for their deep moral lessons, allegorical storytelling, and spiritual undertones. He was a pioneer in blending elements of Christian theology with fantasy, creating stories that are both whimsical and thought-provoking. In addition to his fairytales, MacDonald wrote novels, poetry, and essays that often delved into themes of love, redemption, and the struggles of the human soul. His works were highly influential on writers who admired MacDonald's ability to create imaginative worlds while exploring deep spiritual and philosophical questions.
