Избранные произведения в 2 томах

by Stefan Grabiński, Стефан Грабинский, Irina Koltasheva (Translator)

Первое отдельное издание сочинений в 2-х томах классика польской литературы Стефана Грабинского, работавшего в жанре «магического реализма».
Писатель принадлежит той же когорте авторов, что и Г. Майринк, Ф.Г. Лавкрафт, Ж. Рэй, Х.Х. Эверс. Злотворные огненные креатуры, стихийные духи, поезда-призраки, стрейги, ревенанты, беззаконные таинства шабаша, каббалистические заклятия, чудовищные совпадения, ведущие к не менее чудовищной развязке — все это мир Грабинского.

I couldn't find the English version of the collection here, only this one, so I read it. These two volumes contain many more stories than the English-language collection. The stories are magnificent! So much gothic and symbolic, so many diverse horror and mysticism. It's mesmerizing. The author's language is very rich.
