Book ID/图书代码： 04560015B79480
English Summary/英文概要： LUD-IN-THE-MIST by Hope Mirrlees is a classic of fantasy literature from 1926, written by one of the key members of the Bloomsbury set who inspired writers from Neil Gaiman to Susanna Clarke. The work is in fact published by Orion here in the UK, but the Mirrlees literary estate has always been represented by the T. S. Eliot estate; seeing as we handle rights on behalf of the Eliot estate, we recently agreed that it would make sense for us to pro-actively represent rights for this Mirrlees novel too.
The town of Lud is a prosperous, bustling little country port, situated at the confluence of two rivers: the Dawl and the Dapple. The latter, which has its source in the land of Faerie beyond the Elfin Marches and the Debatable Hills, is a source of great trial to Lud, which had long rejected such fanciful nonsense as fairies, elves and the like.
Then a perfect plague of faerie influences hits the town, penetrating even to Miss Primrose Crabapple’s Establishment for Young Ladies, and it becomes apparent to even the stuffiest burgher that Steps Would Have To Be Taken. Fortunately for everyone, Master Nathaniel Chanticleer, Mayor of Lud, is a man with his head firmly in the clouds ...
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 《薄雾中的露德镇》是霍普•莫里斯1926年出版的非常经典的奇幻文学作品，莫里斯是布鲁姆斯伯里团队中的重要成员，其文学造诣影响了尼尔•格曼，苏珊娜•克拉克等众多作家。《薄雾中的露德镇》实则是由英国俄里翁出版社出版的，可莫里斯的文学作品总是被T.S.艾略特的作品所代表。
露德镇是一个非常繁荣忙碌的海港小镇，位于达瓦河和达浦河的交汇处。小精灵边地和争议山是达浦河的源头，而露德镇却总与仙女、精灵等奇幻色彩搭不上边。
但是一场著名的童话瘟疫降临该镇，波及了普里姆罗斯•克拉波普的《年轻小姐的住所》，随后哪怕最顽固的市民也受到了影响。幸运的是，露德镇的镇长，纳撒尼尔•切特希也是个爱幻想，不靠谱的人物。（XAT）
