Updated: 2022-12-10. "Donal Grant" by George MacDonald is a novel written in the early 20th century, reflecting the author’s interest in philosophy and the nature of human existence. The narrative follows the character of Donal Grant, a humble and introspective young man embarking on a journey after leaving his home in search of purpose and fulfillment. The themes of faith, self-discovery, and the struggle between earthly desires and spiritual aspirations are woven into his explorations. At the start of the novel, Donal is portrayed as a carefree youth, simply enjoying the beauty of nature while contemplating his new path. As he makes his way barefoot down the hillside, he reflects on his past and the emotional turmoil he is leaving behind, suggesting a significant life transition. His internal dialogue reveals a desire to adapt and find strength despite the absence of material wealth. Along the way, Donal encounters various characters, including a kind woman who offers him milk and a contemplative cobbler who becomes a friend. Their brief interactions hint at the rich tapestry of human experiences and relationships he will explore throughout his journey. The opening sets the tone for Donal's quest for identity and belonging within the broader landscape of life's challenges.
