The Misfortunes of Elphin is a 1829 novella by English novelist and poet Thomas Love Peacock. This classic work is republished here together with Rhododaphne, Or, The Thessalian Spell: A Poem originally published in 1818. Thomas Love Peacock (18 October 1785 - 23 January 1866) was an English poet, novelist, and important figure in the East India Company. A good friend of Percy Bysshe Shelley, they both had a significant influence on each other's work. Peacock was most famous for writing satirical novels, which usually involved characters sat around a table discussing contemporary philosophical ideas. Other notable works by this author include: Headlong Hall (1815), Melincourt (1817), and Nightmare Abbey (1818). Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with intoductory essays by Sir Walter Raleigh and Virginia Woolf.
