<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>2020 Reprint of 1924 Edition. Dunsany's fantasy novel is widely recognized as one of the most influential and acclaimed works in all of fantasy literature. This captivating tale is the forerunner of modern sword and sorcery novels. It tells of a young lord's quest through a supernatural world in search of a fairy princess bride, recounting the lovers' romance, separation, and reunion. Rich in metaphor, vivid in imagery, the lyrical storytelling evokes a sense of innocent wonder. Its fans range from W. B. Yeats, who wrote that Dunsany "had transfigured with beauty the common sights of the world," to Arthur C. Clarke, who felt that the novel helped elevate the author to "one of the greatest writers of this century."</p><p>Reviews of the work: <br /> <br /> "We find that he has but tranfigured with beauty the common sights of the world."<strong>--William Butler Yeats</strong><br /> <br /> "I shall indeed be happy if this volume contributes to the rediscovery of one of the greatest writers of this century."<strong>--Arthur C.
