"The Land of Heart's Desire" by W. B. Yeats is a play first performed in 1894. Set in rural Ireland, it follows newlyweds Shawn and Maire Bruin whose quiet domestic life is disrupted by a mysterious faery child. The otherworldly visitor speaks of eternal youth and joy, tempting the restless Maire to abandon the mortal world. As the faery child's enchantment grows stronger, Shawn must fight to keep his bride from surrendering to the seductive promises of immortality and the timeless dance of the otherworld.
