Over dit boek
Little Diamond lives in a hay-loft above the stables, where a hole in the wall becomes a window for the majestic and mysterious North Wind. She takes him on fantastical journeys across London and to the peaceful country 'at the back of the north wind.' When his family falls into poverty and moves to the gritty streets of London, Diamond's gentle innocence and kindness become a beacon of hope, affecting everyone he meets—from a drunken cabman to a sick crossing-sweeper girl. Blending magical realism with social commentary, this Victorian classic explores the deepest questions of faith, compassion, and what lies beyond the veil of our world.
