The Silver Trumpet by Owen Barfield - Chapter 2

Before Narnia or Middle-earth, there was "The Silver Trumpet." This is the beloved fairy tale by Owen Barfield (the "First Inkling") that captured the hearts of history's greatest fantasy writers. It was a personal favorite of C.S. Lewis, and J.R.R. Tolkien famously borrowed the manuscript to read to his own children, who absolutely loved it. About the Story: Two Princesses—one kind, one umm not so kind—a Little Fat Podger, and a King whose magical trumpet livens the soul. Experience the hidden gem of the Inklings that influenced the minds behind The Hobbit and The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe.
