A visionary collection of mythic tales, rich with imagination and timeless wisdom. In "Time and the Gods," Lord Dunsany, one of the early masters of modern fantasy, weaves a tapestry of enchanting stories set in a universe governed by mysterious deities and cosmic forces. With poetic prose and a haunting sense of wonder, these tales explore themes of mortality, divinity, and the fleeting nature of existence. From the creation of worlds to the downfall of gods, each story is steeped in mythic grandeur. Dunsany’s vividly imagined landscapes—filled with strange cities, forgotten kingdoms, and immortal beings—invite readers into a realm where the ordinary and the divine collide. First published in 1906, "Time and the Gods" influenced countless fantasy authors, including J.R.R. Tolkien and H.P. Lovecraft, with its lyrical style and profound sense of the sublime.
