Sesta and Other Strange Stories

One of North America's acknowledged masters of the weird tale, Edward Lucas White's classic tales of terror such as "Lukundoo" have won praise from H P Lovecraft and numerous other authors over the years. The publication of this volume, SESTA & OTHER STRANGE STORIES is a major event in the annals of weird fiction, as this book includes several previously unpublished stories that have not seen the light of day in over sixty years. White's nightmare-inspired tales are a deft blend of the American weid tale and his own unique surrealism. This volume, taken with the earlier Midnight House collection, THE HOUSE OF THE NIGHTMARE AND OTHER STORIES, forms a two-volume set collecting the entirety of Mr. White's macabre fiction. Introduction by Lee Weinstein, notes, bibliography. Stories and poems include: "The Ghoula" (poem), "Gertrude", "The Voices", "The Flambeau Bracket", "The Death Rattle", "Canea", "The Buzzards", "The Tooth", The Startling Blonde", "Mandola", "The Whirlpool Gorge", "The Turning Point", "Disvola", "Floki's Blade", "The Serge Coat", "Sesta", "Genius" (poem), "The Stirrup Iron". Illustrated by Allen Koszowski.
