Publisher's Synopsis
Gathered together and translated into English for the first time by Brian Stableford, the current volume contains three bizarre novellas of the paranormal by Gilbert-Augustin Thierry (1843-1915), originally published in periodicals of the day. Written when the author was heavily involved with the French Occult Revival, these feverish tales of reincarnation and redemption are prime examples of an intriguing and much-ignored subspecies of supernatural fiction, and, plunging readers directly into an imaginative environment of suspended disbelief, lack neither in narrative verve nor flamboyance.
