SNF22 Supernatural Fiction Series The Collected Supernatural and Weird Fiction of Amelia B. Edwards Amelia B. Edwards Contains Two Novelettes 'Monsieur Maurice' and 'The Discovery of the Treasure Isles', One Ballad: 'A Legend Of Boisguilbert ' and Seventeen Short Stories to Chill the Blood Twenty tales from beyond the veil from a mistress of the strange and other worldly It is widely held that many of the finest writers of the classic ghostly and macabre story were women. Some would propose that this remains true among modern exponents of the craft. It was certainly true of Amelia Edwards whose collection of otherworldly fiction is highly regarded and extensive, notwithstanding her many other talents. It is interesting that Edwards came into contact with another famous ghost story writer, Charles Dickens, as a consequence of providing articles, poetry and stories for his magazine, Household Words. Whether by coincidence or design Edwards' literary style was so similar to Dickens' as to cause confusion as to the identity of the actual author of some stories. Whilst this will please Dickens aficionados, Edwards own work stands on its own merits as a fine collection of Victorian gothic tales. In later life Edwards became an Egyptologist and was responsible for the preservation of many priceless monuments and artefacts. Available in soft cover and hard cover with dust jacket. Leonaur hard covers make fine collectors editions featuring real cloth bindings, taped head and tail bands and gold foil lettering upon their spines. | ||||
