THE STREET OF QUEER HOUSES AND OTHER TALES
Book Details + Condition: Arno Press (New York). First Edition thus, 1976. Part of Arno Press' hard-to-find "Supernatural & Occult Fiction" collection. Facsimile reprint of the original publication by Vernon Knowles, originally released in 1925. Hardcover with purple boards and silver titling to front and spine. Illustrated. 225 pages. Australian author Knowles has been likened to Richard Garnett, with similarities to the work of Lord Dunsany and Donald Corley, but with a more naive and relaxed style. This is a collection of 15 tales of fantasy, including:
- The Weeping God
- The House of Yesterdays
- The Three Gods
- The House That Took Revenge
- The Elizabethan Gown
- The Mask
- And more.
From the massive occult collection of King Lawrence Parker - academic, dissertation author, and book collector extraordinaire. Book is in near-new, unread condition, with firm binding, bright boards, and a clean interior. First two pages have lengthwise creasing, but this appears to be a publishing error.
