About this listen
Lud-in-the-Mist - a prosperous country town situated where two rivers meet: the Dawl and the Dapple. The latter, which has its source in the land of Faerie, is a great trial to Lud, which had long rejected anything 'other', preferring to believe only in what is known, what is solid.
Nathaniel Chanticleer is a somewhat dreamy, slightly melancholy man, not one for making waves, who is deliberately ignoring a vital part of his own past: a secret he refuses even to acknowledge. But with the disappearance of his own daughter and a long-overdue desire to protect his young son, he realises that something is changing in Lud - and something must be done.
Lud-in-the-Mist is a true classic, an adult fairy tale exploring the need to embrace what we fear and to come to terms with 'the shadows' - those sweet and dark impulses that our public selves ignore or repress.

Loved this book
This is a jewel of a book - I will be thinking about it weeks from now. Beautifully written, and beautifully read. It will bear re-reading soon. First reading to grasp the story, second reading to savour the writing, and listen for key lines, and consider the story behind the story.
