Why read it?
1 author picked Damnable Tales as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This illustrated collection of weird, chilling, quirky stories of ghosts, witches, and occult creatures includes very famous writers such as M.R. James, Edith Nesbit, and Thomas Hardy, as well as less well-known ones like Bernard Capes and John Collier.
I saved up their tales, rationing myself to one per day because they were such a pleasure, each one a neat little parcel of beautifully shivery words.
Being worried about pagan sacrifice and lurking monsters was a lot better than worrying about real stuff, and this horrid, lovely book made me happy.
