Description
The famous ghost stories of M.R. James still resonate, their chilling narratives drawing unsuspecting listeners into deadly shadows. His tales are haunted, somber disturbances of the soul, carefully crafted from the fabric of human fears. His work, a prominent presence in literature, television, and cinema, is highly admired today. The deluxe edition, this sinister new collection, features many of his most famous stories, including some lesser-known ones, such as: “Oh, Whistle, and I’ll Come to You, My Lad,” “The Book of Excerpts from Canon Alberic,” “Mezzotint,” “The Witch of Fenstanton,” “The Experiment,” and “The Well of Tears.”
The Flame Tree Gothic Fantasy, Classic Stories, and Epic Tales collections combine a wide range of myths, folklore, and contemporary short fiction. Highlighting roots in suspense, supernatural phenomena, science fiction, and mystery, books from the Flame Tree Collections series are beautifully presented, perfect as gifts, and offer lifelong reading pleasure.
Fascinating titles and a very broad range of authors reflect the essence of Flame Tree Publishing.
