Autorenporträt

Hugh Lamb has spent over forty years delving into weird fiction. Tired of anthologies reprinting the same old stories, he tried his hand at editing his own. His main area of research is Victorian ghost stories and he has published five anthologies of these: Victorian Tales of Terror, Terror by Gaslight, Victorian Nightmares, Tales from a Gaslit Graveyard, and Gaslit Nightmares. A freelance journalist by profession, Hugh Lamb lives in Sutton, Surrey.

Rezensionen

'I should feel myself ungrateful if I did not pay a tribute to the supernatural tales of Erckmann-Chatrian. The blend of French with German in them, comparable to the French-Irish blend in Le Fanu, has produced some quite first-rate romances of this kind . . . [and] have for years delighted and alarmed me. It is high time that they were made more accessible than they are.'
M. R. JAMES

'A tremendous collection of uncanny tales somewhere between E.T.A. Hoffmann and Borges, they are ingenious and very subtle explorations, a revelation.'
DAVID ANNWN JONES, author of Gothic Effigy
