description: After obscure author of strange stories Simon Peterkin vanishes in bizarre circumstances a typescript of a text entitled 'The Wanderer' is found in his flat. 'The Wanderer' is a weird document. On a dying Earth in the far-flung future a man an immortal types the tale of his aeon-long life as prey as a hunted man; he tells of his quitting the Himalayas his sanctuary for thousands of years to return to his birthplace London to write the memoirs; and writes also of the night he learned he was cursed with life without cease an evening in a pub in that city early in the twenty-first century a gathering to tell of eldritch experiences undergone. Is 'The Wanderer' a fiction perhaps Peterkin's last novel or something far stranger? Perhaps more 'account' than 'story'?
