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.
Through vampiric trysts, heady visions of ghostly processions, and metaphorical tales of murdering ones 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 writers mind, this anthology aims to introduce a new readership to Gilchrists entrancing and influential oeuvre.
