In the final decade of the nineteenth century, the Welsh writer produced a seminal body of tales of occult horror, spiritual and physical corruption, and malignant survivals from the primeval past which horrified and scandalized late-Victorian readers. Machen's \"weird fiction\" has influenced generations of storytellers, from H. P. Lovecraft to Guillermo Del Toro - and it remains no less unsettling today. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis new collection, which includes the complete novel \u003cem\u003eThe Three Impostors\u003c\/em\u003e as well as such celebrated tales as \u003cem\u003eThe Great God Pan\u003c\/em\u003e and \u003cem\u003eThe White People\u003c\/em\u003e, constitutes the most comprehensive critical edition of Machen yet to appear. In addition to the core late-Victorian horror classics, a selection of lesser-known prose poems and later tales helps to present a fuller picture of the development of Machen's weird vision. The edition's introduction and notes contextualize the life and work of this foundational figure in the history of horror.\u003cdiv style=\"display:none\"\u003eISBN-10: 0198813163\u003cbr\u003eISBN-13: 9780198813163\u003cbr\u003eAuthor: Machen, Arthur, Worth, Aaron\u003cbr\u003ePublisher: Oxford University Press\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Oxford University Press","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover (Apr 2018)","offer_id":46099893223621,"sku":"9780198813163","price":21.8,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Paperback (Jan 2020)","offer_id":46099893256389,"sku":"9780198805106","price":14.2,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0708\/6414\/2533\/files\/9780198813163.jpg?v=1776646329","url":"https:\/\/www.inveni.store\/products\/the-great-god-pan-and-other-horror-stories","provider":"Inveni","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
