Imagine it. You go into work one day and are handed something immensely precious: a story. And not just any story, either. A story loved by millions. One that has spawned countless fan websites. Inspired fan fiction. Featured in Twitter spats that threaten to break friendships, if not the internet. And now you are in charge of it.
We are excited to share the exclusive text from Erin Morgenstern's introduction to The Folio Society's edition of The King of Elfland’s Daughter. In her heartfelt piece, Morgenstern reflects on her discovery of Lord Dunsany's timeless work, describing it as a "story-treasure" that beautifully intertwines the mundane with the magical. Her words capture the ethereal quality of Elfland and the deep resonance of a story that feels both ancient and newly discovered.
