The Collected Strange Stories of Robert Aickman, Volume II

Robert Aickman is considered by many to be one of the finest modern writers of ghost stories. But Aickman himself referred to his tales as "strange stories", for they are often open to more complex interpretations. The writing is subtle and poetic, presenting us with both psychological and more material terrors.

"Tales of Love and Death": Growing Boys, Marriage, Le Miroir, Compulsory Games, Raising the Wind, Residents Only, Wood.
