Celtic Weird

From the shorelines, hills and towns of ancient lands, tales of twisted creatures, sins against nature and pagan revenants have been passed down through generations. This volume gathers twenty-one enthralling tales imbued with Celtic folklore, spanning from the 1820s to the 1980s, including three weird lost gems translated from Gaelic. Compiled by Johnny Mains, the collection echoes the beguiling essence of a distinctive strand of strange fiction, influenced by masters such as Arthur Machen, Edith Wharton and Robert Aickman.

The volume is part of the British Library Hardback Classics series, published by British Library Publishing. It presents 336 pages in hardcover, 1st edition.
