Friends of Arthur Machen view detail comment email this

In some ways Machen can be seen as a British counterpart of H.P. Lovecraft. Both men set many of their stories in their native countrysides, evoking haunting landscapes that bristle with ancient evil. Unlike Lovecraft, Machen thrived in the big city and many of his stories are set in 1890s London as well as the Welsh border country. This site offers a biography, annotated bibliography, and several of his short pieces to read.

Browse by category, or search by keyword or by "appeal," which allows you to choose from a list of characteristics within a genre (e.g., "mystery novels where the focus of the story is on people and the psychology of characters and the author's style is elegant and 'literary'"). Any reader may submit reviews for consideration. From a Canadian library system.
