A collection of the finest supernatural tales by two of the best
Victorian writers of weird tales - Erckmann-Chatrian, authors who
inspired M. R. James, H. P. Lovecraft, and many others. Emile
Erckmann and Louis Alexandre Chatrian began their writing
partnership in the 1840s and continued working together until the
year before Chatrian's death in 1890. At the height of their powers
they were known as 'the twins', and their works proved popular
translated into English. After their deaths, however, they slipped
into obscurity; and apart from the odd tale reprinted in
anthologies, their work has remained difficult to find and to
appreciate. In The Invisible Eye, veteran horror anthologist Hugh
Lamb has collected together the finest weird tales by
Erckmann-Chatrian. The world of which they wrote has long since
vanished: a world of noblemen and peasants, enchanted castles and
mysterious woods, haunted by witches, monsters, curses and spells.
It is a world brought to life by the vivid imagination of these
authors and praised by successors including M.R. James and H. P.
Lovecraft. With an introduction by Hugh Lamb, and in paperback for
the first time, this collection will transport the reader to the
darkest depths of the nineteenth century: a time when anything
could happen - and occasionally did.
