Can Such Things Be: Tales of the Supernatural - M. J. Penny

Descriere Can Such Things Be: Tales of the Supernatural - M. J. Penny

\nThe disappearance of writer Ambrose Bierce in 1913 has remained one of the greatest mysteries within the literary world. After crossing the border into revolutionary Mexico, the 71-year-old prolific author, satirist, poet and journalist was never heard from again. Indeed the facts of such a disappearance would not seem out of place in one of his own fictional stories-such was his talent at weaving the strange and the unusual. It is however, not only his disappearance that remains remarkable. More remarkable was the life Bierce lived, the man he was, and the imprint he left on the world through his words.\n \nThis edition includes the 'Denneker' engravings. As included in two of his stories, the Denneker connection has been linked to Bierce aswell as H P Lovecraft\n \nContents: \n \n- The Death of Halpin Frayser \n- The Secret of Macarger's Gulch \n- One Summer Night \n- The Moonlit Road \n- A Diagnosis of Death \n- Moxon's Master \n- A Tough Tussle \n- One of Twins \n- The Haunted Valley \n- A Jug of Sirup \n- Staley Fleming's Hallucination \n- A Resumed Identity \n- A Baby Tramp \n- The Night-Doings at 'Dead-Man's' \n- Beyond the Wall \n- A Psychological Shipwreck \n- The Middle Toe of the Right Foot \n- John Mortonson's Funeral \n- The Realm of the Unreal \n- John Bartine's Watch \n- The Damned Thing \n- Haita the Shepherd \n- An Inhabitant of Carcosa \n- The Stranger \n \n
