Descriere magazin:
For the past two decades, British author Mark Samuels has written some of the most vibrant and challenging weird fiction of any contemporary writer. But his work--collected in such volumes as The White Hands and Other Weird Tales (2003), The Man Who Collected Machen (2010), and Written in Darkness (2014)--has by and large appeared in limited editions not widely distributed in the United States. This volume features seventeen of Samuels\'s best weird stories. Several display his fascination with technology, advertising, and urban horror, as in Apartment 205 and the title story. Other tales speak of the writing of weird fiction itself as a potentially hazardous and supernatural enterprise, as in The White Hands and Vrolyck. In several of his lengthier narratives--notably The Gentleman from Mexico and The Crimson Fog--Samuels draws upon H. P. Lovecraft\'s pseudomythology to venture into realms of cosmic horror. The Black Mould and My World Has No Memories are distinctively existential tales of undeniable potency. Mark Samuels is one of the pioneering weird writers of today, and this selection makes plain why he has few rivals in the portrayal of the horrors that are unique to our troubled age.
