The Well at the World's End: A Tale

"The Well at the World's End" is a fantasy novel by the British artist, poet, and author William Morris. This book has a strong influence on other fantasy, including Tolkien's «Lord of The Rings.» The book tells about Ralph, the youngest son of a minor King who runs away from his home to seek a mysterious well, which waters give strength, youth, and immortality. Yet, as it often happens, the best part of a story is the travel itself: on the way to the cherished well, Ralf learns about life and sees the real good and evil.
