Here are all the stories as they originally appeared. This collection is an important milestone in the history of weird literature providing not only the theme of the mysterious, lethal book but also being an important influence on H. P. Lovecraft. This novel remains one of the most important in Machen's writings. A semi-autobiographical novel, it follows a young writer from his beginnings as the poor son of a minister in rural Wales to poverty and despair in an uncaring London. Throughout the book, the main character serves as Machen's stand in and has strange mystical experiences as he tries to escape into the Roman past.
