Robert Aickman

The Unsettled Dust

Buch

Brings together eight stories where strange things happen that the reader is unable to predict. This title features characters that are often lonely and middle-aged but they have the same thing in common - they are each brought to the brink of an abyss that shows how terrifyingly fragile our piece of mind actually is.

Über den Autor

Robert Fordyce Aickman was born in 1914 in London. He was married to Edith Ray Gregorson from 1941 to 1957. In 1946 the couple, along with Tom and Angela Rolt, set up the Inland Waterways Association to preserve the canals of Britain. It was in 1951 that Aickman, in collaboration with Elizabeth Jane Howard, published his first ghost stories in a volume entitled We Are for the Dark. Aickman went on to publish seven more volumes of 'strange stories' as well as two novels and two volumes of autobiography. He also edited the first eight volumes of The Fontana Book of Great Ghost Stories. He died in February 1981.
