ARGONAUT BOOKS

The disquieting tales of New England author Mary E. Wilkins Freeman explore a world of domestic spaces turned uncanny, hopeful youths grasped by the spirits of vengeful ancestors and nature made sinister when the effects of twisted physics suggest some supernormal influence. Collecting the best of the author's strange and unsettling tales - including two stories which have long evaded her anthologists - this volume casts a light on an underappreciated contributor to weird fiction, and the shadowy corners of a dark imagination.
