Description

A masquerade ball cut short by a mysterious plague; a strange nocturnal ritual; a black bobcat howling in the night: these tales are some of the most strange and unsettling in all of American literature, filled with unforgettable imagery and simmering with tension. The stories in this collection were selected by Laird Hunt, an author of seven acclaimed novels which explore the darkest corners of American history. Contains: The Masque of the Red Death, Edgar Allan Poe; Young Goodman Browne by Nathaniel Hawthorne, The Eyes by Edith Wharton, The Mask, Robert Chambers, Home by Shirley Jackson, A Ghost Story by Mark Twain; Spunk by Zora Neale Hurston, The Yellow Wallpaper by Charlotte Perkins Gilman and An Itinerant House by Emma Frances Dawson
