  • The Secret Glory
    Arthur Machen
    Fabulous piece of writing. It is really quite astounding that Machen is largely forgotten as a writer. In The Secret Glory, I particularly loved Machen’s satirical social comments about the class system, Christian hypocrisy and the sadistic puritanism of English Public Schools. This isn’t always an easy book to read but it is very rewarding, and after reading, like the best lit...

  • The Terror
    Arthur Machen
    Most essential Machen work is from the 1890s, but The Terror is one of his most developed horror tales from his later career. This often waffling novella is meandering and less focused than his dark folk masterpieces The Hill of Dreams, The Great God Pan, Novel of the Black Seal and The White People, but also gleefully manic and quite inspired in parts, developing an atmosphere...

  • The House of Souls
    Arthur Machen
    The Great God Pan and ’The White People’ are classics of the horror genre, while The Inmost Light is more conventional, but still a damn good piece. A Fragment of Life, the only non-horror tale in the collection, has its tedious sections, but this proves to be intentional as a rendering of the ephemera of life drowning out the beauty.Machen’s career, though rarely less than ent...

  • Far Off Things
    Arthur Machen
    A beautiful book by one of the least known writers of horror/supernatural fiction. It’s the first volume of his autobiography, and by far far the best of the three. It is an amazing piece of writing not only for the things he describes, but also (and most of all) for how he describes them, with a style which is far from the one he used in his fiction.

  • Hieroglyphics
    Arthur Machen
    Fascinating mystical and artistic creed and a good-natured marvel of circumlocution. Practically everything Machen wrote in the 1890s had the touch of genius, and this even applies to his non-fiction, though this is actually presented as a fictional account from Machen’s familiar of imagination.Here Machen vaguely details how he separates high literature from mere reading mater...
