comment |
September, terribly bored of her mundane life in Omaha, is delighted when she's visited by the Green Wind and the Leopard of Little Breezes, who spirit her away to Fairyland. There, she takes on a quest for a witch to take her magical spoon back from the terrible Marquess, ruler of Fairyland. She gains great friends and allies in A-Through-L (a half-wyvern, half-library crossbreed), a blue marid named Saturday, and many other residents of the land, both friendly and dangerous.The Girl Who Circumnavigated Fairyland in a Ship of Her Own Making is a children's and young adult fantasy novel by Catherynne M. Valente, with illustrations by Ana Juan. The novel started as a book within a book in Palimpsest. It was originally published for free online, but was finally put onto paper in May 2011. It deals with the adventures a young girl called September has in Fairyland. That Sounds Familiar, but the book provides a broad knowledge on folklore, and reads like a love letter to those odd Victorian classics with a twist of sardonic humor to them (such as Alice in Wonderland).The book spawned a series, totaling six books. A sequel called The Girl Who Fell Beneath Fairyland and Led the Revels There was published in October 2012. A second sequel The Girl Who Soared Over Fairyland and Cut the Moon in Two was published in October 2013, and a third, The Boy Who Lost Fairyland, in March of 2015. A prequel, The Girl Who Ruled Fairyland—For a Little While, tells the story of the young girl who became Fairyland's Queen Mallow (and is full of Major Spoilers for the first book, so only read it after that one). The final book, The Girl Who Raced Fairyland All The Way Home, was released in March 2016. |

Became Their Own Antithesis: Queen Mallow rose to her throne when she defeated the cruel King Goldmouth. She ruled exceptionally well, but was kicked out of Fairyland through no fault of her own. When she returned as the Marquess, she became cruel and despotic herself. |

Arbitrary Skepticism: September accepts most of Fairyland's strangeness (witches, fairy gold, flying leopards, you know), but when A-Through-L tells her his father was a library, September's suspension of disbelief runs out. |

Genre Savvy: Most of the inhabitants of Fairyland have lived through or studied stories for so long that they recognize patterns long before September does, and even have formulas for conceivable plots. This results in frequent Lampshade Hanging to the point of Affectionate Parody. |

Twist Ending |
| The Girl Who Circumnavigated Fairyland in a Ship of Her Own Making / int_19102429 |
comment |
Twist Ending: It turns out that the Marquess wants September to lock the portal which connects the human world to Fairyland, supposedly so that no child can get lost again. To persuade September, she shows her a watch with September's name on it, which determines the time she stays in Fairyland. Then it turns out that it's the Marquess's watch, whose true name is Maud Elizabeth Smythe, and that it's she who doesn't want to return or let any other child come. Then she reveals her backstory. In the sequel, the sleeping Prince Myrrh, who September had been hoping could overthrow Halloween, is actually the unborn child of Mallow/the Marquess, allowed to grow up after his mother was taken from Fairyland and forced into a child's body. It also turns out that the Alleyman is the shadow of September's father, who Halloween brought to Fairyland so she could protect him. In the fourth book, September is chosen as the queen of Fairyland, when a spell is cast to reset everything in the kingdom. Meanwhile, September's aunt seems to know how to bring September's mother to Fairyland to retrieve her. |

Parents as People: More serious, less zany. September comes from a loving home, but her father is away fighting in World War II and her mother works long hours in a factory. September holds it against them enough that she doesn't wave goodbye when she goes to Fairyland, though she regrets this later. |

Chekhov's Gun: The narrator comes right out and tells the reader that the shoe September lost will become a plot point later. The glass sphere that the Green Wind gives September. She finds it in her pocket when she's trapped at the bottom of a well, and crushes it to call the Green Wind, who is able to save her because she's technically beneath Fairyland. Chekhov's Gunman: In the fourth book, the narrator very casually mentions that the baby Hawthorne is replacing will show up again in a later chapter. |

Seasonal Baggage |
| The Girl Who Circumnavigated Fairyland in a Ship of Her Own Making / int_28ddc48d |
comment |
Seasonal Baggage: Different parts of Fairyland are ruled by different seasons, but the most significant reoccurring seasonal motif is that of autumn. September is named after the month that contains the autumnal equinox (despite having been born in May). She loves the color orange, her shadow is named Halloween, and she's frequently associated with autumnal imagery in general. Both autumn and September herself represent change in-universe. |

God Save Us from the Queen! |
| The Girl Who Circumnavigated Fairyland in a Ship of Her Own Making / int_2fa6b075 |
comment |
God Save Us from the Queen!: The Marquess has no problem killing her subjects, stealing their possessions, forcing them to wear Cold Iron chains around their wings (which, for the fey, is very painful), or splitting Fairyland forever from the human world). Played with in regards to Halloween. She does some cruel and terrifying things, and her non-shadow subjects are terrified that she'll send the Alleyman after them, but she is adored by her shadow subjects for giving them their own lives. The ending hints that with a way devised for the shadows and regular people to co-exist, Halloween can be a better ruler for everyone, and is left in power. |

Doofy Dodo: Subverted in the second book.

Aubergine is the only dodo we meet— all the others of her kind have gone deep into hiding. |

Take That, Critics!: The first book was criticised because the Big Bad ruler of Fairyland in it, the Marquess, is a woman, and Marquess, despite common misconceptions, is the standard English spelling of Marquis, and not its feminine version. At the beginning of the final book, it's revealed that she intentionally took a masculine title, and the characters who criticise her for it are depicted as smug, obnoxious snobs. |

Narnia Time |
| The Girl Who Circumnavigated Fairyland in a Ship of Her Own Making / int_47e61b99 |
comment |
Narnia Time: No time passes in the Human world for a Human in Fairyland, with occasionally cruel results like growing to adulthood in Fairyland and then being thrust back into an abusive family as a twelve-year-old. Adds a serious element of Fridge Horror to the more famous example of the Pevensies returning to England and becoming young again. The third book ends on a cliffhanger where it seems this has not happened and September's mother finds she is missing. The fourth book continues to play with it, in that September spends an unspecified but presumably lengthy period of time in Fairyland (she has enough time to learn equations and laws for the country). Her family does realize she's gone, but they only think she's been missing for three days. |

Sacred First Kiss: The value of a first kiss is lampshaded in the second book, when a goblin elaborates on their stock prices. Played with when Saturday's shadow steals September's first kiss, because she is more upset how it did not feel like what a kiss should be than that it was her first. |

Jerkass Has a Point: Many things that Marquess says are logical, including the fact that taking away one's father, is much worse than taking away one's spoon. While Halloween does many unsavory things (steals shadows from Fairyland Above, cuts shadows off of her own people, plans to force Fairyland Above to join the human world, etc), she does have a point when she argues that the shadows deserve to have their own lives, independent of the people they mirror. |

Nice Job Breaking It, Hero! |
| The Girl Who Circumnavigated Fairyland in a Ship of Her Own Making / int_7fbb2a3 |
comment |
Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: September trading her shadow for the Pooka girl did in fact save that girl's life. It also later ended up putting Fairyland in great danger. Bringing back the fairies doesn't do much good either, since they revolt against the king and want King Goldmouth back. |

Red Oni, Blue Oni: Ell and Saturday, which is reflected in their coloring. Ell is loud and quick to threaten to burn things down if he thinks harm may come to September. Saturday is soft-spoken and gentle and hates granting wishes, because he might harm someone in the ensuing wrestling match. |

Interspecies Romance: The Good Queen Mallow (human) and Mr. Map (who has wolf ears), September (human) and Saturday (a Marid), and Ell's parents (as he is supposedly a Wyvern/library hybrid). At the end of the final book, we have one between Ell himself and Blunderbuss, a giant patchwork woolen wombat. |

| The Girl Who Circumnavigated Fairyland in a Ship of Her Own Making / int_859ec5d8 |
comment |
The Fair Folk: Interestingly lacking from Fairyland, though there are a few. "Fairies" as a species proper are in short supply in Fairyland, while witches, spriggans, trolls, and all other creatures abound. In the third book we learn a bit more of Fairyland's history, including that Fairies were not above stealing a Yeti's paw and using its time-bending powers to their benefit, even as a weapon that only they (immortal) could survive. In the fourth book, they return. And clearly have learned nothing, after their long stint as inanimate objects. |

That Man Is Dead: Mallow/Marquess. Though for a change, it is not entirely her fault. Rather the fairyland rules literally made Mallow disappear, though what happened afterwards is another story. |

The Chosen One: The story flirts with this concept, but ultimately subverts it. The Green Wind points out that it was September herself who decided to go on a quest for Goodbye's spoon and all the adventures that followed; she could have done what other children do in Fairyland and had fun, but she didn't. |

Land of Faerie: Obviously. It's called Fairyland, it's a separate magical dimension from Earth, there are fairies though there used to be a lot more of them, and most of the monarchs we see or hear about are queens. However, it still feels rather more like The Wonderland, partly because fairies are so thin on the ground. |

Gender-Blender Name: Well, title; the Marquess. Technically, a woman would be a Marchioness or a Marquise.note Possibly this is a very subtle allusion to The House of Tudor — before they were married, Henry VIII created Anne Boleyn as Marquess of Pembroke in her own right. Their marriage caused the much-loved Queen Catherine of Aragon to be basically locked away from her subjects... replaced by the Marquess. |

And I Must Scream |
| The Girl Who Circumnavigated Fairyland in a Ship of Her Own Making / int_a8a04f6f |
comment |
And I Must Scream: In the second book we learn that shadows are intelligent creatures with their own wants, personalities, ambitions, and so on. Until Halloween took over Fairyland-Below, they were trapped attached to the denizens of Fairyland-Above, unable to speak or move independently. Subverted for Prince Myrrh: Being in a deep sleep for years because he was technically never born may sound pretty horrific, but the baku eating his dreams describes his experience as an overly long nap. He is no worse for the wear after he's woken. In the third book, there is a new law stating Tools Have Rights. September believes this is completely silly, though she begins to wonder if tools can have wills when her Model-A sometimes runs and sometimes doesn't. As it turns out, the tools of Fairyland are the fairies that we haven't seen much of through three books, trapped as inanimate objects. |

So What Do We Do Now?: The Stumbled — human children who find their way into Fairyland through side doors — are not allowed to stay. Eventually, whether after an hour or a lifetime, they have to go back to the human world and adjust to life there. Mallow did not take this well. The Ravished — human children who are stolen to Fairyland — are not allowed to leave. Not forever. They make periodic trips back. Either way, there's secrets to keep for the rest of your life. |

Shadow Archetype: Quite literally when Fairyland's shadows come to life. Shadows are the darker, hidden parts of the people they come from. Particularly Halloween to September. In a less literal sense, The Marquess/Maud to September. Like September, Maud was a little girl who came to Fairyland for adventure and became a hero there. September could easily become just like her if pushed too far. |

Came Back Wrong: A variant. The death involved is more metaphorical than literal. Mallow originally came to Fairyland an ordinary little girl who grew up to become a queen. When forced to leave, she desperately looked for another way in, despite no such way existing. It was only through turning her clock back — not at all unlike cheating death — that she could come back... as a very angry, bitter woman in a twelve-year-old girl's body. |

Golem: Lye is a golem made of soap, tending magical baths and eagerly awaiting her mistress. Her mistress was Queen Mallow/the Marquess. |

Shout-Out |
| The Girl Who Circumnavigated Fairyland in a Ship of Her Own Making / int_c75df49a |
comment |
Shout-Out: The narration mentions an orange book of Greek mythology that September is fond of. This is undoubtedly D'Aulaires' Book of Greek Myths, which Valente has mentioned as one of her inspirations. On a related note, the Ravished — those who come to Fairyland by being stolen away and bound to Fairyland by eating the food — are covered in Fairyland's laws under the Persephone clause. September fondly remembers a film where a dark-haired princess runs through a terrifying forest. She liked that part, but found the princess's singing annoying. Another little girl who Stumbled into Fairyland found the way through an armoire. September's mother is reminded at one point of a man in a green smoking jacket she met when she was a small girl. Possibly a further reference is made in the fourth book, where September's aunt seems to know how to reach Fairyland and her name is Margaret - the name often attributed to Wendy's granddaughter. In The Girl Who Raced Fairyland, the weapon used by one of the future-tense Latin knights Ell summons appears to be the autonomous dart used by Yondu in the Guardians of the Galaxy films. |

Freudian Excuse |
| The Girl Who Circumnavigated Fairyland in a Ship of Her Own Making / int_c868a42a |
comment |
Freudian Excuse: The Marquess lived unhappily as a girl in the real world, but found joy, love, and a kingdom as Queen Mallow. Then the laws of Fairyland forcibly evicted her at the height of her power. Small wonder she'd be so resentful after clawing her way back. |

Legacy Character: The Winds operate by this principle, though how their replacements are chosen vary from Wind to Wind. To succeed the Blue Wind one must steal something of theirs, to succeed the Red Wind one must defeat them in single combat, and to succeed the Green Wind one must save their life. |

I Know Your True Name: Knowing someone's true name gives you power over that person. September wasn't suppose to tell anyone her true name, though she never lied about her name when in Fairyland,until she finds out that the true name is actually a person's full name, which in her case would be September Morning Bell. She also finds out the Marquess's true name. |

| The Girl Who Circumnavigated Fairyland in a Ship of Her Own Making / int_e061cb06 |
comment |
Rightful King Returns: This is what several denizens of Fairyland-Below believe will happen if Prince Myrrh awakes from his sleep. Subverted when the prince wakes up and, as September warned, he has no idea if he wants to be a king of anything. The newly-returned fairies hope for this in the fourth book. Although considering how Mallow earned the undying love of Fairyland for overthrowing their king and how the previous lifestyle of the fairies lead to their lengthy imprisonment as household objects, this isn't treated as a good thing. |

Insistent Terminology |
| The Girl Who Circumnavigated Fairyland in a Ship of Her Own Making / int_e563bf09 |
comment |
Insistent Terminology: Everywhere in Fairyland. Different creatures correct September constantly as to what they are and what they do. Witches would like to make it clear that they are not sorceresses, enchantresses, or hags. In the course of the first book, September meets only two actual fairies in Fairyland, with other characters insisting that they're brownies, elves, pixies, or sprites. The scarcity of actual fairies in Fairyland becomes a plot point in one of the sequels. September argues that witch food and dragon food is not the fairy food that she should beware. She's wrong. |

Don't Fear The Reaper: When September meets Death in the Worsted Wood, she finds her to be quite kind and friendly, despite her morbid vocation. In book one Death appears as a small, gentle creature, who tells September she will slowly grow bigger and more menacing the closer September comes to the end of her life. Death is tormented by the regrets of the dead, and September sings her to sleep with her mother's lullaby. A much larger Death appears again in the final book, to witness September transform into the Green Wind. |

Exact Words: In the first book, September attempts to invoke this, rationalizing to herself that, for example, popcorn bought from a dryad is "dryad food", and will not have the same effect as fairy food. She's wrong. It's all fairy food, because it was grown in fairy soil. |

Dark and Troubled Past |

comment |
Dark and Troubled Past: The Marquess's Backstory is awfully sad and touching. In her life in the human world, her mother died when she was eight and she was abused by her alcoholic father. Then she stumbled into Fairyland, lived there for many years, fell in love and became a queen, and not by marriage, and became pregnant. And then she was snatched back into her dull world, all the ones she loved and who loved her in Fairyland gone, stuck with her abusive father and in a twelve-year-old's body, no husband, no child, nothing. Doesn't really surprise one that she became so bitter and full of hatred for Fairyland, first giving her so much love, and then taking it away again. |
