The Windfairies is Mary De Morgan's third and final collection of fairy tales. Like its predecessors, it draws inspiration from other stories in the fairy tale genre. Among the tales in this collection are "Vain Kesta," a story about pride and greed, "The Story of a Cat," which tells of how a miser learns to care for other people, and the titular "The Windfairies," a fairy tale in a more traditional mode that involves fairies and a young woman. Intelligent animals, supernatural beings, and moral lessons appear in some degree across all stories. Mary De Morgan was a significant literary figure whose work has stood the test of time. This public domain edition preserves the original text in its entirety, making it accessible to modern readers and scholars alike. Fantastical literature has always allowed writers to explore human truths through the lens of the impossible and the magical. The Windfairies draws on mythology, folklore, and pure invention to construct a world that illuminates our own.
