The Fairy Visions of Richard Dadd

After Nina in Utopia comes the second breathtakingly original entry in the Bedlam Trilogy

The great Victorian fairy painter takes center stage in—and out of—Bedlam, beset by the larger-than-life characters of phantasmagorical Victorian London while he tries to commune with the fairies he creates on canvas. Rival artists—eerie foreshadows of modern Young British Artists—plague him, while a kindly doctor tries to help him return to sanity; Nina pays him a visit from her 21st century Utopia and Dadd puts in a spot of time-travel himself.
