Anybody else out there remember Lord Dunsany? I read a couple of books of his when they came out in the Ballantine Adult Fantasy series in the early seventies. (Ah, those were more innocent days. What does adult fantasy sound like to you? John Norman?) I read "The King of Elfland's Daughter" and "At the Edge of the World", but was too young to appreciate the light satiric tone. Now, of course, I don't have them available. What else did Dunsany write? /jlr
