I Am Stone: The Gothic Weird Tales of R. Murray Gilchrist (Tales of the Weird): 25 (British Library Tales of the Weird) - Softcover
Inhaltsangabe
Through vampiric trysts, heady visions of ghostly processions, and metaphorical tales of murdering one's own psyche, the portrait of a truly unique writer of the strange tale emerges.
R. Murray Gilchrist was lauded for his imagination and florid, illustrative style during the fin-de-siecle period, and this new collection showcases the very best of his short fiction. Despite being admired by H. G. Wells and described by Arnold Bennett as "almost the peak of perfection in that difficult genre [of short fiction]," Gilchrist and his works are now largely forgotten. Packed with thrilling encounters and unforgettable descriptions from the weirdest ebb of the writer's mind, this anthology aims to introduce a new readership to Gilchrist's entrancing and influential oeuvre.Die Inhaltsangabe kann sich auf eine andere Ausgabe dieses Titels beziehen.

Paperback. Zustand: New. 'The first thing my dazed eyes fell upon was the mirror of black glass. She held it so that I might gaze into its depths. And there, with a cry of amazement and fear, I saw the shadow of the Basilisk.'Through odysseys across dreamlike lands, Gothic love affairs haunted by the shadow of death and uncanny episodes from the Peak country, the portrait of a unique writer of the strange tale emerges. With his florid, illustrative style and powerful imagination, R. Murray Gilchrist's impact on the weird fiction genre is unmistakable - and yet his name fell into obscurity following his death. Exploring tales of annihilation and shattered identities, fatalistic romances, bewildering visions of the sublime and mythological evils preying on the innocent, this new anthology is a journey through an entrancing and influential oeuvre essential for any reader of the weird.
