About this listen

Explore the enchanting world crafted by Lord Dunsany, a pioneering Anglo-Irish writer and dramatist whose influence on fantasy literature is profound. Born in London in 1878, Dunsany drew inspiration from the evocative poetry of Algernon Swinburne, who famously mused, Time and the Gods are at strife, as well as the whimsical fairy tales of the Brothers Grimm and Hans Christian Andersen. His unique storytelling style has left an indelible mark on the works of influential authors such as H. P. Lovecraft and Ursula K. Le Guin. The correspondence between Dunsany and Arthur C. Clarke, spanning from 1944 to 1956, is preserved in the book Arthur C. Clarke & Lord Dunsany A Correspondence. Time and the Gods, first published in 1906, is a captivating collection of short stories that delve into myth and fantasy, inviting readers to lose themselves in its timeless narratives.
