This review is from: Strange Stories (Super Natural and Occult Fiction Series) (Hardcover)
This is a reprint of a 1929 collection of short stories by Algernon Blackwood (1869-1951). The stories collected in this volume were from among the best ones published throughout Blackwood's career up to that date. They are, in the order presented:The Man Whom the Trees Loved; The Sea Fit; The Glamour of the Snow; The Tryst; Transition; The Occupant of the Room; The Wings of Horus; By Water; Malahide and Forden; Alexander Alexander [not a typo]; The Man Who Was Milligan; The Little Beggar; The Pikestaffe Case; Accessory Before the Fact; The Deferred Appointment; Ancient Lights; You May Telephone From Here; The Goblin's Collection; Running Wolf; The Valley of the Beasts; The Decoy; Confession; A Descent Into Egypt; The Damned; The Willows; Ancient Soceries This is quite simply the best overall Blackwood collection in print, by one of the best and most underrated English fiction writers of the 20th century. Often dealing with themes around nature, spirituality, and the supernatural, this volume includes such incomparable gems as "The Man Whom the Trees Loved", "A Descent Into Egypt", and "The Willows". These stories will surprise and delight you through many readings.
