About the work
The LibriVox catalogue summary, preserved with the recording, reads:
LibriVox recording of The Coming of the Fairies, by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. Read by Rapunzelina, Piotr Nater, A.J. Carrol, Lucretia B, Novella Serenan and Amy Gramour After a number of deaths in his close family, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle turned to spiritualism in hope of finding proof of the afterlife. Being open in this way, he wanted to believe that spirits and other supernatural being including fairies were real. Because of this he believed the photographs of fairies taken by the Cottingley girls were proof of the existence of such beings. In this book he presents his stance on the issue. Eventually it was proven that the photographs were indeed a hoax. (Summary by Amy Gramour)
