Forlagsbeskrivelse af The White People af Arthur Machen

'The White People' is a horror short story by Arthur Machen in which two men discuss the eternal battle between good and evil. Eventually one of them pulls out and opens a mysterious diary filled with archaic folklore and studies of the occult. A hallucinogenic labyrinth of madness, witchcraft and the vileness of mankind - 'The White People' is a must-read for devotees of Machen, H.P. Lovecraft and Edgar Allen Poe. Jorge Luis Borges cited Machen as a great writer and an inspiration for the magical realism movement in literature. Notorious occultist Aleister Crowley also greatly admired Machen for effortlessly crossing over the threshold that separates reality and the magical realm. Strongly recommended for fans of the 'Good Omens' series inspired by Terry Pratchett's fiction and starring Michael Sheen and David Tennant. Fans of the HBO show 'Lovecraft Country' may also find a true Lovecraft-ian treasure trove hidden between the pages of 'The White People'. Arthur Machen (1863-1947) was a Welsh writer of supernatural, fantasy, and horror novels. Before his literary career skyrocketed he also worked as a journalist and an actor. His major belief was that the ordinary and external world surreptitiously conceals something far more mysterious and bizarre. In turn, we are deeply interested in trying to lift the veil enshrouding the threshold separating the two. His most acclaimed works include the classic horror novella 'The Great God Pan' and the semi-autobiographical 'The Hill of Dreams'.
