Publisher's Synopsis
This peculiar collection is a very real treat: we envy you the reading of it. Among the treasures in this volume are The Last Dream of Bwona Khubla, How the Office of Postman Fell Vacant in Offord-Under-the-Wold, The Prayer of Boob Aheera, East and West, A Pretty Quarrel, How the Gods Avenged Meoul Ki Ning, The Gift of the Gods, The Sack of Emeralds, The Old Brown Coat, An Archive of the Older Mysteries, and A City of Wonder, and a section he called Beyond the Fields We Know, Idle Days on the Yann, A Shop in Go-By Street, and The Avenger of Perdondaris. Dunsany had a weird, weird imagination, but unlike most folks who think weird thoughts, he had a powerful ability to write.
