Mer om författaren
Robert W. Chambers (1865-1933) was an American author and artist. He was a prolific writer and enjoyed great success during his lifetime, with an output comprising works of romance, adventure and science fiction, as well as some books for children. However, it is principally for his weird and supernatural stories, and in particular this collection, which is regarded as one of the most important works of American supernatural fiction, that he is remembered today.

Läste den mest i och med True Detective och boken är verkligen udda. Den påminner en hel del om Lovecrafts verk men har inte riktigt samma sting.
