About the work
The LibriVox catalogue summary, preserved with the recording, reads:
LibriVox recording of Thomas Wingfold, Curate by George MacDonald. Read in English by volunteer readers. Republished in modern times as "The Curate's Awakening". A young man (Thomas Wingfold) "enters the church" through no real faith and only for want of something to do. After an encounter with a brash young atheist, he is thrown into an emotional, spiritual, and vocational crisis. Through his own doubts and through developing clarity gained from the counsel of a singular friend, he begins a slow journey toward faith, or - as he would put it - "a lovely hope." (Summary by John Schuurman & TriciaG) Note that there are two versions of chapter 67. Enjoy either one or both of the renderings.
