This is an automatically translated description

The author of this fairy tale, Owen Barfield, is a philologist and anthroposophist, one of the Inklings, an Oxford literary group that also included the famous C.S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien.

The Silver Trumpet was written in 1925, long before Narnia and Middle-earth appeared, but in its sparkling, silver-like clarity and mystery at the same time, the characteristic, amazing style of later English-language fantasy literature is already clearly visible, down to the subtle shades that make it similar, for example, to the modern Harry Potter. At one time, Tolkien's children were delighted with this fairy tale. It is interesting how modern children will perceive it.
