Summary: "The Queen Who Flew: A Fairy Tale" by Ford Madox Ford is a fantasy novel likely written in the late 19th century.

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.
