A review by lordfrikk
The King of Elfland's Daughter by Lord Dunsany

3.0

Where other people may have found heartbreaking story I found only guy who invaded a land that was manifestly different, on behest of couple of drunkards calling themselves a parliament and for no reason other than boredom no less, found his soon-to-be wife there who he later drove away due to his complete inability to accept anything else but his own little world, and despite her trying to do her best. The rest of the book is then describing his nothing short of insane obsession (no euphemism there, mind) with getting her back with no self-reflection whatsoever... and succeeding.

I realize this is fairy tale-esque fantasy but I just couldn't get over it with this book.
