Publisher's Synopsis
Behind The Arras: A Book Of The Unseen (1895) is a collection of supernatural and mystical short stories written by Canadian poet Bliss Carman. The stories explore the hidden and mysterious aspects of reality that lie beyond the everyday world. The book is divided into three sections: ""The Seen"", ""The Unseen"", and ""The Eternal"". The first section deals with the visible world and the everyday experiences of human life. The second section delves into the supernatural and the unseen forces that shape our lives. The final section explores the eternal and the transcendent, examining the nature of existence and the mysteries of the universe. Throughout the book, Carman weaves a spellbinding tapestry of myth, legend, and folklore, drawing on a wide range of literary traditions and spiritual beliefs.
