Ancient Sorceries and Other Weird Stories de Algernon Blackwood

Ancient Sorceries and Other Weird Stories: Penguin Twentieth-Century Classics

Autor Algernon Blackwood Editat de S. T. Joshi
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 iul 2002 – vârsta de la 18 ani
By turns bizarre, unsettling, spooky, and sublime, Ancient Sorceries and Other Weird Stories showcases nine incomparable stories from master conjuror Algernon Blackwood. Evoking the uncanny spiritual forces of Nature, Blackwood's writings all tread the nebulous borderland between fantasy, awe, wonder, and horror. Here Blackwood displays his best and most disturbing work-including "The Willows," which Lovecraft singled out as "the single finest weird tale in literature"; "The Wendigo"; "The Insanity of Jones"; and "Sand."

Recenzii
