Basic Reason for Beginning: I always said I wanted to read a little more of Dunsany's work. Well, pre-Tolkien works, really. I dithered between this version and a reprint of The King of Elfland's Daughter, and this won out because it has more stories in it, so more variety.
Basic Reason for Finishing: I actually quite like these stories by Dunsany and they showcase about five decades of his works.
Texture: Different for each story, but they all made me a bit drowsy, not sure how else to describe it.

Rereadability: Some stories are more memorable than others, of course, but I could see myself rereading this, yes. I wish I'd found these when I was a child. I'd definitely have reread them many times then. (Not, I should note, that these are stories for children. They aren't. They're just the stories I would've read when I was younger.)
Recommendation: If you want an introduction to Dunsany and the variety of Dunsany's works. Specifically if you want an impression of the variety of his works. If you want to read more about the creation of the fantasy (and, I'm guessing, horror) genre. ( )
