The Unsettled Dust
ISBN: 9780571311736 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 384 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych (Dostawa przed świętami) Robert Aickman, the supreme master of the supernatural, brings together eight of his self-proclaimed "strange stories."

He builds dread by the steady accrual of realistic detail, until the reader realizes that the protagonist is heading towards their doom as if in a dream. His characters are often lonely and middle-aged, but all have the same thing in common - they are all brought to the brink of an abyss that shows how terrifyingly fragile our piece of mind actually is....
