Publisher's Synopsis
This collection of stories from one of Scotland's greatest writers is a tour-de-force of imagination and wit. Hogg spins tales of witches, ghosts, and other supernatural beings in a style that combines humor and horror. His depiction of rural life in nineteenth-century Scotland is both realistic and fantastical. A Queer Book is a literary gem that deserves to be better known. Fans of the Gothic and the macabre will find much to enjoy in these tales.
