Subject: Re: (urth) Mopsa the Fairy
And I must admit that after a single reading of "Mopsa," I don't know what it is about the fairy princess in this story that makes Wolfe regard her as realer than any other fairy princess.
I haven't read the story, but I can't resist pointing out that the two shepherdesses in the sheep-shearing scene in A Winter's Tale are called Mopsa and Dorcas.
