"A Dreamer's Tales" by Lord Dunsany is a collection of fantasy short stories published in 1910. This fourth book by the influential Irish fantasy writer presents sixteen tales of mysterious cities, magical curses, and strange prophecies. From mountains that trap climbers forever to abandoned cities whose souls speak to visitors, Dunsany weaves stories of ancient rulers, prophetic visions, and objects that tell their own histories. These dreamlike narratives explore themes of mortality,
power, and the supernatural in richly imagined worlds. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
