The usual suspects are here as well as the unexpected. Niccolo Machiavelli~the famed author of that most diabolical political treatise, The Prince~is here with "Belphagor," his only work of fiction. That master of the macabre, Edgar Allan Poe, contributes "Bon~Bon" and Washington Irving, the author of "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow," is here with "The Devil and Tom Walker," another timeless tale of Gothic Americana. J. Sheridan Le Fanu, the Victorian era's greatest writer of the supernatural and the author of "Carmilla," is represented by "Sir Dominick's Bargain," a masterful retelling of an old Irish legend. The Russian short story writer Nikolai Vasilevich Gogol is here with "St. John's Eve," a classic tale of peasant~folk bedevilment. Among the unexpected are offerings by the great English authors Charles Dickens~"The Devil and Mr. Chips"~and William Makepeace Thackeray~"The Painter's Bargain" ~who are better known for their realistic novels. This volume concludes with a story by Stephen Vincent Benet, "The Devil and Daniel Webster" a modern masterpiece of infernal soul~selling that proves Satan is alive and well in the literature of the twentieth century. Whether one believes in the Devil or not, Devilish Doings is a fun collection that will delight anyone with a yen for tales of wonder and bedevilment. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 9082402
