"Hinds' Feet on High Places" by Hannah Hurnard is an allegorical Christian novel that follows the spiritual journey of a young, crippled girl named Much-Afraid. Living in the Valley of Humiliation, she longs to escape her fears and follow the Shepherd to the High Places, a symbol of spiritual maturity and closeness to God. Along the way, Much-Afraid is accompanied by two unlikely companions—Sorrow and Suffering—and faces many trials, including steep paths, darkness, and loneliness. Through these experiences, she learns to trust the Shepherd completely and undergoes a transformation of her heart and nature. By the end of the journey, Much-Afraid is made whole and receives a new name, Grace and Glory, symbolizing her spiritual rebirth and victory over fear. The story is a metaphor for the Christian walk of faith, endurance, and the process of spiritual growth.
