"Malvina of Brittany" by Jerome K. Jerome is a novel written during the early 20th century that merges elements of fantasy and romance. The story revolves around Malvina, a mischievous fairy from medieval folklore, who is exiled for her reckless magic. The narrative transitions into the early 20th century, where she encounters Flight Commander Raffleton, leading to a mix of enchantment and human relationships. The opening of the novel introduces the character of a Doctor who reflects on a peculiar story involving the fairy Malvina, as well as her escapades and the consequences of her magic. Malvina's antics during her time with the White Ladies of Brittany set the stage for her journey into the modern world where she meets Raffleton. Following a fateful kiss, he inadvertently awakens her from centuries of slumber, and the two embark on an exploration of Malvina’s identity and the implications of her fairy magic in contemporary society. The beginning sets a playful yet thought-provoking atmosphere as it intertwines history, folklore, and the challenges of navigating human emotions. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
