"Lud-in-the-Mist" by Hope Mirrlees is a novel published in 1926. In the orderly city of Lud-in-the-Mist, rational citizens have banished all thoughts of the neighboring land of Faerie from their lives. But when forbidden fairy fruit begins infiltrating their world, the respectable mayor Nathaniel Chanticleer must confront what his society has denied. To restore balance, he must abandon convention and seek reconciliation between the prosaic and the fantastic. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
