Summary "The Queen Who Flew: A Fairy Tale" by Ford Madox Ford is a fantasy novel likely written in the late 19th century. The story revolves around a young queen, Eldrida, who, despite her position in a powerful kingdom, finds her life dull and yearns for adventure. The narrative unfolds with her conversation with a bat, during which she learns about the possibility of flight and becomes entangled in the political turmoil of her kingdom. At the start of the tale, the queen is alone in her garden as a revolution brews outside, reflecting a unique take on royal life amidst chaos. She converses with the bat about her desire to fly and eventually learns of a flower that could grant her this ability. The opening sets the stage for her quest for freedom beyond the confines of her palace, exploring themes of independence, curiosity, and self-discovery as she interacts with various characters, including a regent and commoners, ultimately leading to her decision to unearth her capabilities and embark on a journey that promises excitement and enlightenment.
