Title: The face in the mirror
First published: 1971
Description: Denys Val Baker is one of the most accomplished short story writers in the English-speaking world-and also, one might add, one of the most versatile, for his tales range over a wide variety of subjects. For this book he has collected a dozen of his best macabre stories, ranging from tales of pure fantasy like The Trees to whimsy like A Tall Tale and memorable terror in The Face in the Mirrdr and Passenger to Liverpool.

The dozen stories in this volume represent an amazing variety of themes within the limited domain of the macabre and introduce to American readers an unusual talent in the field of the short story. Denys Val Baker's only previous appearance in America has been in such anthologies as The Night Side and in a paperback collection, in addition to publication in many magazines.
