Synopsis "Fifty-One Tales"
Fantasy Short Stories Fifty-One Talesby Lord DunsanyFifty-One Tales is a collection of fantasy short stories by Irish writer Lord Dunsany, considered a major influence on the work of J. R. R. Tolkien, H. P. Lovecraft, Ursula K. Le Guin and others. The first editions, in hardcover, were published simultaneously in London and New York by Elkin Mathews and Mitchell Kennerly, respectively, in April, 1915. The British and American editions differ in that they arrange the material slightly differently and that each includes a story the other omits; "The Poet Speaks with Earth" in the British version, and "The Mist" in the American version.The collection's significance in the history of fantasy literature was recognized by its republication (as The Food of Death: Fifty-One Tales) by the Newcastle Publishing Company as the third volume of the Newcastle Forgotten Fantasy Library in September, 1974. The Newcastle edition used the American version of the text.The book collects fifty-one short stories by the author.CONTENTSThe AssignationCharonThe Death of PanThe Sphinx at GizaThe HenWind and FogThe Raft-BuildersThe WorkmanThe GuestDeath and OdysseusDeath and the OrangeThe Prayer of the FlowerTime and the TradesmanThe Little CityThe Unpasturable FieldsThe Worm and the AngelThe Songless CountryThe Latest ThingThe Demagogue and the Demi-mondeThe Giant PoppyRosesThe Man With the Golden Ear-ringsThe Dream of King Karna-VootraThe StormA Mistaken IdentityThe True History of the Hare and the TortoiseAlone the ImmortalsA Moral Little TaleThe Return of SongSpring In TownHow the Enemy Came to ThlunranaA Losing GameTaking Up PicadillyAfter the FireThe CityThe Food of DeathThe Lonely IdolThe Sphinx in Thebes (Massachusetts)The RewardThe Trouble in Leafy Green StreetThe MistFurrow-MakerLobster SaladThe Return of the ExilesNature and TimeThe Song of the BlackbirdThe MessengersThe Three Tall SonsCompromiseWhat We Have Come ToThe Tomb of Pan
