I am currently reading Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell. Within, there is a reference to a magical kingdom by the name of Pity Me. I found this amusing, as this is in fact a real place in County Durham, near where I went to University.

I do not think it is a coincidence that the author was living in County Durham when she started to write the book. :-)
