Real Magic
Price 26.06 - 28.59 USD
In the first decade of the twentieth century, Julian Hawthorne collected his favorite weird stories from writers around the world and organized them, mostly geographically. The anthologies are Weird Fiction -- some of the stories are mystery; some would do well published as modern horror, or SF, or fantasy; all of them exquisite and of interest to modern genre readers. "Real Magic" was published as the Real Life volume. Where other volumnes organize themselves geographically, this one is thematic -- and little if any of it is fiction. It features Weird Tales of Reality from writers who include Andrew Lang, M. Robert-Houdin, Arthur Train, P.H. Woodward, David P. Abbott, and Hereward Carrington. (Jacketless library hardcover.)
