More about the book
This collection features ten short stories inspired by the works of various poets, alongside two poems and an extensive introduction by Cabell. A highlight is "Balthazar's Daughter," which served as the foundation for Cabell's only published play, The Jewel Merchants. While the connection to Poictesme is minimal, Cabell asserted that these historical narratives should not be separated from his fantasy works, thus integrating this volume into the broader timeline of his fictional realm.
