Celephaïs

"Celephaïs" () is a fantasy story by American horror fiction writer H. P. Lovecraft, written in early November 1920 and first published in the May 1922 issue of the ''Rainbow''.
The title refers to a fictional city that later appears in Lovecraft's Dream Cycle, including his novella ''The Dream-Quest of Unknown Kadath'' (1926).
==Inspiration==

Like many of Lovecraft's stories, "Celephaïs" was inspired by a dream, recorded in his commonplace book as "Dream of flying over city."〔Cited in Joshi & Schultz, "Celephais", ''An H. P. Lovecraft Encyclopedia'', p. 36.〕
The story resembles a tale by Lord Dunsany, "The Coronation of Mr. Thomas Shap" in ''The Book of Wonder'', in which the title character becomes more and more engrossed in his imaginary kingdom of Larkar until he begins to neglect business and routine tasks of daily living, and ultimately is placed in a madhouse. The imagery of the horses drifting off the cliff may derive from Ambrose Bierce's "A Horseman in the Sky" (1891).〔Joshi & Schultz, p. 36.〕
