Fairy-Land Comments

Fantastic poem chosen by Poem Hunter and Team as The Modern Poem Of The Day.

FINAL COMMENT: It also reflects the conventions of the Romantic era, with its emphasis on nature, imagination, and the supernatural.. Excellent poem. TOP Marks

Compared to Poe's other works, 'Fairy-Land' falls within his oeuvre of Gothic and macabre themes, but with a focus on the surreal and dreamlike rather than the horrific.

Man loved the moon and stars

I absolutely love this poem. It's actually my second favorite, beaten only by Dreamland

Seriously if Edgar Allan Poe was alive, I would just give him a big hug right now for writing this. He's so great.
