The Three Mulla-Mulgars

About this book

Three young monkeys leave their home and set out across a strange world. There are formidable rivers, unknown peoples and creatures that might be friends or enemies.

Walter de la Mare fills The Three Mulla-Mulgars with invented words and an imagination that refuses to make its wilderness too familiar. The journey has the simplicity of an adventure and the disturbing depth of a dream. Its invented language makes each new encounter feel as unfamiliar as it does to the three travellers.
