Description

Wonderfully crafted stories from a master of the macabre Vincent James O'Sullivan (1868-1940) was an American -born in New York City-author of macabre stories and odd poetry. Oscar Wilde (who was a friend)commented, ' In what a midnight his soul seems to walk', which is surely an accolade for any writer of this genre!Whilst he was born into a comfortable life, a business gamble by his brother financially ruined the family in 1909 and their fortunes never recovered. Indeed, Vincent remained poor for the remainder of his life. This disaster may well have influenced his writing and taste for tales of horror. Nevertheless, O'Sullivan, whilst, largely forgotten among writers of the supernatural, remains highly regarded by those who are aware of his work as a master of style as well as content. O'Sullivan died in Paris, France and his body tragically interned anonymously in a pauper's mass grave. This collection also includes, ' Out of the Cloud', 'The Bars of the Pit', 'The Hour of the Ghosts' and Original Sin'.
