Author | E. F. Benson |
Description | Benson's third collection of ghost stories is arguably his best. Three of the twelve tales included here are superb ("The Face," "And No Bird Sings" and "The Temple") and three others ("A Tale of an Empty House," "Naboth's Vineyard" and "The Corner House") are near to them in quality. I particularly recommend: "The Face" (perhaps Benson's most terrifying story), "And No Bird Sings" (the best of his giant slug/elemental tales) and "The Corner House" (not that scary, but featuring a memorably repulsive incarnation of Benson's greatest personal terror—the large, assertive, middle-aged woman). |
