20 reviewsPerhaps best known for his 'perfectly realised' novel of Edwardian childhood The Go-Between,
L.P. Hartley was also a much admired adept of the macabre short story.
Hartley was no dilettante in the genre: he was well-versed in its long
and distinguished tradition, and these carefully crafted tales represent
some of the most successful attempts to carry the ghost story into the
twentieth century.
The Collected Macabre Stories
includes thirty-seven of Hartley's best tales, ranging from the
well-known, traditional ghost stories 'The Cotillon' and 'Feet
Foremost', through the dark humour of 'The Travelling Grave' and 'The
Killing Bottle' to the Aickmanesque 'The Pylon'. These encompass a wide
range of settings, from English Country Houses to Venetian Palaces. Two
accomplished fantasies, 'Conrad and the Dragon' and 'The Crossways'
display Hartley's range and versatility. Taken as a whole, the
collection represents one of the most impressive achievements of
twentieth-century macabre fiction.
