  • Hauntings Fantastic Stories

    Restored Classics to Go Edition

    by Vernon Lee ...
    Vernon Lee's ghostly art of suggestion begins with a bold claim: the most powerful supernatural tales are not the ones that prove spirits exist, but the ones that leave us suspended between memory, atmosphere, and imagination.

    Restored Classics to Go Edition

    by Vernon Lee ...
    Ariadne in Mantua is Vernon Lee's lyrical, melancholy romance of Renaissance Italy, where music, memory, and loss haunt the splendor of a courtly world.
