Literary and speculative essays, many resembling truth, on the paranormal and other imaginative topics - ranging from Madame Blavatsky to make-believe musicians - by Fortnightly Review columnist and novelist James Gallant.

Kripal, J. Newton Rayzor Professor of Religion, Rice University, author of Secret Body: Erotic and Esoteric Currents in the History of Religion
