The Windfairies is Mary De Morgan’s third and final collection of fairy tales. Like its predecessors, it draws inspiration from other stories in the fairy tale genre. Among the tales in this collection are “Vain Kesta,” a story about pride and greed, “The Story of a Cat,” which tells of how a miser learns to care for other people, and the titular “The Windfairies,” a fairy tale in a more traditional mode that involves fairies and a young woman. Intelligent animals, supernatural beings, and moral lessons appear in some degree across all stories.
