5.0

The writing in this book is so magical, and so meaningfully muses on the themes of the time, that it forces you to view the restlessness of reality as a magical force.

I hesitate to say this book subverts fantasy tropes because from what I have heard, Dunsany influenced many of the most prominent figures in fantasy. I will say that my preconceptions of what a fantasy story could be, was subverted and I’m excited to read more work inspired by Lord Dunsany’s imaginative vision.
