Out of the Deep: And Other Supernatural Tales

Walter de la Mare wrote some of the finest traditional ghost stories in the English language. Although some of his classic stories have been frequently anthologized, many of them are hard to find outside scholarly collections. This new collection presents some of the best-loved stories alongside others that have been undeservedly neglected. De la Mare is revealed as an enigmatic writer of troubling stories that take unexpected turns into the supernatural.ContentsIntroduction (Out of the Deep and Other Supernatural Tales) • essay by Greg Buzwell [as by uncredited]Kismet • (1895) • short story by Walter de la MareA:B:O. • (1971) • novelette by Walter de la MareThe Riddle • (1903) • short story by Walter de la MareOut of the Deep • (1923) • novelette by Walter de la MareSeaton's Aunt • (1922) • novelette by Walter de la MareWinter • (1924) • short story by Walter de la MareThe Green Room • (1925) • novelette by Walter de la MareAll Hallows • (1926) • novelette by Walter de la MareA Recluse • (1926) • novelette by Walter de la MareThe Game at Cards • (1928) • short story by Walter de la MareCrewe • (1929) • novelette by Walter de la MareA Revenant • (1936) • novelette by Walter de la MareThe Guardian • (1938) • short story by Walter de la Mare
