Queen Mab
Queen Mab is the first major poetic work by Percy Bysshe Shelley and serves as a foundation to his theory of revolution. It depicts a two-pronged revolt involving necessary changes brought on by nature and the virtuousness of humans.
The poem is written in the form of a fairy tale that presents a future vision of utopia on earth. Queen Mab, a fairy, descends in a chariot to a dwelling where Ianthe is sleeping on a couch. Queen Mab transports Ianthe's spirit on a celestial tour to her palace at the edge of the universe. - Summary by Alan Mapstone and wikipedia
