Description

"In a Glass Darkly by Sheridan Le Fanu is a masterful collection of supernatural tales that explores the eerie and the unknown with skillful suspense and psychological depth. First published in 1872, this anthology consists of five interconnected stories, each delving into the realms of ghostly apparitions, madness, and the uncanny. The stories include Green Tea, The Familiar, Mr. Justice Harbottle, The Silent Woman, and The Dead Sexton, each with its own chilling narrative and unforgettable characters. Le Fanu’s storytelling is known for its atmospheric tension and subtle horror, and In a Glass Darkly is no exception. The characters are often haunted by forces beyond their comprehension, and the stories evoke a sense of creeping dread as the lines between the natural and supernatural blur. The collection also introduces Dr. Hesselius, a rational and methodical doctor who investigates these supernatural events, providing an intellectual counterpoint to the otherwise terrifying occurrences. In a Glass Darkly is a seminal work in the Gothic and ghost story traditions, influencing generations of writers, including Bram Stoker and M.R. James, and remains a must-read for fans of classic horror and supernatural fiction."
