Lud-In-The-Mist

Hope Mirrlees

A true classic - and the 'single most beautiful...and unjustifiably forgotten novel of the twentieth century' Neil Gaiman

Lud-in-the-Mist is a prosperous country town situated where two rivers meet: the Dawl and the Dapple. The Dapple springs from the land of Faerie and is a great trial to Lud which rejects anything 'other' preferring to believe only in what is known what is solid.

Nathaniel Chanticleer a dreamy melancholy man is deliberately ignoring a vital part of his own past; a secret he refuses even to acknowledge. But with the disappearance of his daughter and a long-overdue desire to protect his son he realises Lud is changing - and something must be done.
