A collection of short stories by Edward John Moreton Drax Plunkett, an Anglo-Irish writer and dramatist, who published under the name Lord Dunsany. The book will transport readers into a fantastic paradoxical world, where beauty, horror and irony reign. This world is wonderful, as well as ours, but their interfering is always a disaster. Ancient gods, ruthless and calling for bloody rites, magic creatures, dwellers of the hills and forests of Britain and Ireland are dangerous for people. A human
...being is powerless against the beyond; and his way along the unreal is dismal and hopeless.
