Reseña de The Collected Algernon Blackwood

The Collected Algernon Blackwood de Algernon Blackwood Resumen del Libro

A master of the weird, unsettling, supernatural, and sublime, Algernon Blackwood created worlds and weird tales like no other. His works influenced generations of later writers of fantasy and weird fiction like H. P. Lovecraft, J. R. R. Tolkien, Frank Belknap Long, Clark Ashton Smith, Ramsey Campbell, and H. Russell Wakefield. Lavishly illustrated with over fifty custom illustrations, The Collected Algernon Blackwood celebrates the entire breadth and depth of Algernon Blackwood's otherworldly works. Evoking the uncanny spiritual forces of nature and the depth and breadth of the human spirit, Blackwood's writings explore the nebulous reaches between fantasy, awe, wonder, and horror. In this collection, Blackwood displays his best and most disturbing works, including The Willows, which Lovecraft called "the greatest weird tale ever written", The Wendigo, The Insanity of Jones, Incredible Adventures, Sand, and many more. The literary critic S. T. Joshi stated that Blackwood's short story collection Incredible Adventures (1914) "may be the premier weird collection of this or any other century". Blackwood is widely considered one of the finest ghost story writers of all time.
