Domnei: A Comedy of Woman-Worship by James Branch Cabell
"Domnei: A Comedy of Woman-Worship" by James Branch Cabell is a fantasy novel written between 1910-1912. Set in the imaginary French province of Poictesme during the 13th century, it tells the story of Dom Manuel's daughter Melicent and the disastrous struggle between her successive husbands, Demetrios of Anatolia and Perion de la Forêt. The novel explores themes of chivalric woman-worship through a dramatic tale of conflicting loyalties and passion in a richly
imagined medieval world. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
