Vivo; The Life of Gustav Meyrink (eBook, ePUB)

Beschreibung

The first English-language biography of the novelist and magus. Stories collected round Gustav Meyrink, so that it is often difficult to distinguish fact from fiction. Vivo: The Life of Gustav Meyrink presents the reader with both the remarkable life and the fantastic legend that was Meyrink, allowing him and those who knew him to speak in their own words wherever possible.
