Phantastes: A Fairy Romance for Men and Women, is a fantasy novel by Scottish author George MacDonald, first published in London in 1858.The story centres on the character Anodos ("pathless", or "ascent" in Greek) and takes its inspiration from German Romanticism, particularly Novalis. The story concerns a young man who is pulled into a dreamlike world and there hunts for his ideal of female beauty, embodied by the "Marble Lady". Anodos lives through many adventures and temptations while in the other world, until he is finally ready to give up his ideals. | |

Great Big Library of Everything: One exists in the fairy palace containing books so well-written that reading them is effectively indistinguishable from living out the story they contain. | |

Purple Prose: The prose is quite often ornate, but it doesn't detract from the pleasure derived from the perusal of the novel. | |

Fairyland | |
| Phantastes / int_837fa11b | comment |
Fairy Land: The main setting of the story. Most of it seems to be covered in a deep, enchanted wood full of magical creatures, although deserts, seas and other areas are encountered. Overall, it seems to be composed and home of various mythical and folkloric locations and archetypes. | |
