The Book of Wonder
Lord Dunsany
Publisher: Dunsany Books
Summary
The Book of Wonder features fourteen short stories by Lord Dunsany, all of them whimsical, imaginative, and deeply strange. Dunsany writes stories that don't always have a happy ending, and these are no exception—though they're written in an almost fairytale or allegorical style, they each have a melancholy, vengeful, or even mad edge to them.
