The Mermaid's Husband
あらすじ・解説
Narrated as an audiobook by Mike Vendetti, "The Mermaid's Husband" is a poetic short story by Lord Dunsany, a writer known for his contributions to fantasy literature in the early 20th century. The story revolves around a mermaid and her husband, exploring themes of love, longing, and the complexities of relationships across different worlds.
The narrative presents the mermaid as a creature of beauty and the sea, caught between her oceanic home and the world of humans. The husband, who is a human, represents the terrestrial life that clashes with the enchanting but perilous allure of the ocean. Dunsany's rich, lyrical prose captures the ethereal nature of the mermaid, as well as the depth of emotion involved in such an unlikely union.
Through vivid imagery and a sense of melancholy, the story delves into the notion of sacrifice and the inherent difficulties in bridging the gap between two vastly different existences. Overall, it reflects Dunsany's talent for weaving fantastical elements with profound human truths, a hallmark of his work that continues to resonate with readers and listeners of myth and fantasy.
