The majority of the story concerns the adventures of the daughters of Robert Vivian, seven sisters who are princesses of the Christian nation of Abbieannia and who assist a daring rebellion against the evil John Manley's regime of child slavery imposed by the Glandelinians.

(Darger, like his father, was a Civil War expert.) Children take up arms in their own defense and are often slain in battle or viciously tortured by the Glandelinian overlords. The elaborate mythology also includes a species called the "Blengigomeneans" (or Blengins for short), gigantic winged beings with curved horns who occasionally take human or part-human form, even disguising themselves as children. They are usually (but not always) benevolent; some Blengins are extremely suspicious of all humans, due to Glandelinian atrocities.</p><p style="margin-top: 0.4em; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0.5em; margin-left: 0px; line-height: 1.5em; "><i>In the Realms of the Unreal</i> includes <i>The Story of the Vivian Girls, in What is Known as the Realms of the Unreal, of the Glandeco-Angelinian War Storm Caused by the Child Slave Rebellion</i>, and extends over 15 immense, densely-typed volumes of 15,145 total pages. The text is accompanied by three bound volumes of several hundred illustrations, scroll-like watercolor paintings on paper, the work of six decades, derived from magazines and coloring books. In addition, Darger wrote an eight volume, 5,084-page autobiography, <i>The History of my Life</i>; a 10-year daily weather journal; assorted diaries; and a second work of fiction, provisionally entitled <i>Crazy House</i>, of over 10,000 handwritten pages.</p></span><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" line-height: 19px;font-family:-webkit-sans-serif;font-size:13px;"><br /></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" line-height: 19px;font-family:-webkit-sans-serif;font-size:13px;"><br /></span></div></div>Chrissy Espinozahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16483155969697674359noreply@blogger.com0
