First published in 1894, Arthur Machen’s harrowing tale woven around a terrible mistake made by a doctor encompasses sinister rites, death and devastation and remains one of the most revered and influential classic horror stories.
I will not read it; I should never sleep again.
A doctor performs an experiment on a young woman that goes horribly wrong, and a series of increasingly strange events follow: sinister woodland rituals, disappearances, suicides... Viewed as immoral and decadent on first publication in 1894, Machen's weird tale has since established itself as a classic of its genre and has been described by Stephen King as 'one of the best horror stories ever written. Maybe the best in the English language'.
The Penguin English Library - collectable general readers' editions of the best fiction in English, from the eighteenth century to the end of the Second World War.
