Condition remarks:
Condition: Good to fair. Paperback. Page Condition: Good - possible tanning. Markings: possible previous owner inscription.
A masterwork of supernatural horror, this anthology gathers some of Algernon Blackwood's most unsettling and celebrated short fiction. The title story chronicles a man consumed by an obsessive belief in karma and past lives, whose grip on sanity unravels as cosmic forces converge upon him. Blackwood, widely regarded as one of the greatest horror writers in the English language, conjures an atmosphere of creeping dread and psychological terror that distinguishes him from mere purveyors of shock. The collection presents a world where the boundary between the rational and the unknowable is paper-thin, and nature itself becomes a conduit for ancient, malevolent presences. Readers of M.R. James and Arthur Machen will find in Blackwood a kindred master of the weird tale at the height of his powers.
