(Joseph Henry) 1856 Pearce, Joseph Henry Drolls From Shadowland Produced by Juliet Sutherland, Emmy and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team at https://www.pgdp.net "Drolls From Shadowland" by J. H. Pearce is a collection of fantastical tales written in the late 19th century. This book encapsulates whimsical and eerie narratives that delve into the surreal and the mystical, often exploring themes of wish fulfillment, identity, and the moral implications of one's desires. The stories invite readers into a world where the boundaries between reality and fantasy blur, reflecting the Victorian fascination with the supernatural and the extraordinary. In this collection, Pearce presents a series of engaging stories featuring characters who encounter enchantment and peril in their pursuits of happiness or understanding. From a miner who can coin his blood into gold to a young man who attempts to find the elusive fields of amaranth for peace, each tale carries a moral lesson or cautionary message. The characters, often flawed and driven by longing, navigate encounters with witches, ancient entities, and the consequences of their ambitions. Ultimately, the stories combine humor, sorrow, and philosophical reflection, weaving a rich tapestry that invites readers to contemplate the nature of existence and the shadows that lurk within their own desires.
