Krátky popis
The mysteries of our universe and a terrifying sense of the unknown
are laid bare in this anthology of weird fiction. Featuring stories
from Edith Nesbit, Algernon Blackwood, Robert Louis Stevenson and
more, Classic Weird Storiescelebrates the unsettling and the
unexplainable side of life. Vividly imagined and richly described,
each of these tales is a journey beyond normality. Danger lurks
everywhere, and pounces at the drop of a hat in Lafcadio Hearn’s
‘Mujina’, a Japanese folk tale in which a man’s lonely night-time
walk turns into a nightmare. Charlotte Riddell describes the
unbridled power of evil in ‘Sandy the Tinker’, as a man is forced
to make a life-or-death choice. Twisted minds conduct experiments
on themselves and others in Edith Nesbit and Robert Louis
Stevenson’s fiction, while other bizarre, paranormal experiences
have onlookers struggling to believe what their instincts tell
them. In Ambrose Bierce’s ‘The Damned Thing’, a sceptical jury
stand around the corpse of a man who died in suspicious
circumstances. For the terrified witness, words fail to convey
exactly what he saw . . .Part of the Macmillan Collector’s Library,
a series of stunning pocket-sized classics. These beautiful books
make perfect gifts or a treat for any book lover. This edition is
compiled and introduced by Dr Emily Alder.
