Into the London Fog : Eerie Tales from the Weird City : 16

'Outside, where the air was foggy, the square was noiseless, save for an occasional hoot of a motor passing into the streets. By degrees I found the light growing rather dim, as if the fog had penetrated into the room...' As the smoky dark sweeps across the capital, strange stories emerge from the night. A séance reveals a ghastly secret in the murk of Regent's Canal. From south of the Thames come chilling reports of a spring-heeled spectre, and in Stoke Newington rumours abound of an opening to another world among the quiet alleys. Join Elizabeth Dearnley on this atmospheric tour through a shadowy London, a city which has long inspired writers of the weird and uncanny. Waiting in the hazy streets are eerie tales from Charlotte Riddell, Lettice Galbraith and Violet Hunt, along with haunting pieces by Virginia Woolf, Arthur Machen, Sam Selvon and many more.Author: Elizabeth Dearnley,author,Claude McKay,author,Sam Selvon,author,Violet Hunt,author,Edith Nesbit,auth Contributors: Elizabeth Dearnley,author,Claude McKay,author,Sam Selvon,author,Violet Hunt,author,Edith Nesbit,author,Arthur Machen,author,Marie Belloc Lowndes,author,Charlotte Riddell,author,Rhoda Broughton,author,Virginia Woolf,author,Elizabeth Dearnley,editor Binding: paperback Publication Date: Release Date: Languages: English,Published,English,Original Language,Englis Format: Abridged Edition: 1 Model: part_ Published/Release Date: 20 Aug 2020 Format: Paperback / softback Publisher/Studio/Brand: British Library Publishing Author/Director/Artist: Charlotte Riddell Dimension (cm): 133x191x23 mm Package Dimension (cm): 26x188x128 mm Item Weight (g): 295 Package Weight (g): 280
