The High Place (subtitled A Comedy of Disenchantment) is a 1923 fantasy novel by James Branch Cabell, first published in hardcover by Robert M. McBride in an edition illustrated by Frank C. Pape.

[5] H. L. Mencken called The High Place "an extremely amusing book, full of both gaudy nonsense and penetrating observation";[6] he praised it lavishly in The American Mercury, saying "The tale has charm almost without measure.

[7] The New York Times reviewer Lloyd Morris praised the "conscious insincerity" of Cabell's writing, saying "There is a false paganism, a sophisticated grace" in it, citing "His cultivated preciosity, his erudite artificiality, [and] his elaborate daintiness."

[8] Edmund Wilson rated The High Place as "one of the best of Cabell's books," saying "Here the dream evanescences and the images cast from mirrors reach a point of expert juggling that half conveys disquieting meanings".

[10] Discussing the 1970 reissue, M. John Harrison also found The High Place "an amusing and entertaining book," noting that "Cabell's wit is as sharp and as nasty as ever, and seems to gain in power when removed to a less Medieval milieu".
