   `the book of wonder is another book by lord dunsany– it’s a
collection of short stories! they’re really good– my personal fave is
the quest of the queen’s tears. anyway, you can read it here: gutenberg.org/files/7…
i highly recommend it, especially if ur enjoying the king of elfland’s daughter!    

oh cool! thanks for the link, also i love short stories! now that i think about it actually lol i think gogol did mention this collection to me while selling me on elfland’s daughter, the title rang a bell but i guess my brain is just a sieve atm.
