SUPERSTITION is a powerful, and in some ways, an almost awe-inspiring story of a man whose life was shadowed by the 'demonical love' of a woman. As tragedy after tragedy befell him there arises the inevitable question: coincidence or superstition? Did these thing happen just by chance, or were they influenced by some hidden and incontrollable force? This, briefly, is the theme of a story more remarkable, more challenging and more poignant than anything Mr. McKenna has yet done.
Stephen McKenna was an English novelist, author of over 40 books of fiction and non-fiction, starting with a romance, The Reluctant Lover (1912), published whilst he was still at Oxford.
