Zustand: Hardcover, New in dust jacket. Exeter: Nezu Press:, 2025. Hardcover, New in dust jacket, 101 pp. The Door Ajar, a collection of seven short stories of the weird and uncanny by Virginia Milward, was first published by William Rider & Son, Limited, in the spring of 1912. Two of the tales are premonitory, and three of them… involve haunted objects-a book from the time of plague, a silver box that witnessed the French Revolution, and a painting from fifteenth-century Florence-that reveal the tragic ends of those who once possessed them. The atmosphere in all of the stories is oppressive; the women in them are haunted, desperate, tortured, abandoned or exhausted, and the cause for their sad state is usually a man, for 'where men go pain follows-pain and misery of mind.' These are tales in which 'woman suffers and the man sins, and the man shares all the sin, but not the suffering.'.

In need of a summer residence that he can retreat to when New York becomes too hot to work in, he buys the old Michell place in Connecticut. But…the house is haunted, and the entity haunting it is no mere ghost-no puny dead human that our hero has some hope of comprehending and conquering. The 'Thing' that haunts Roger is outside of his understanding, possesses power beyond his imagination, and is kept at bay solely by the resistance of his mind: a mind which, with each encounter with 'It', has the potential to weaken and fail.".
