Werewolf [Dramatized Adaptation]

by Max Brand

Werewolf by Max Brand in Western Story Magazine (12/18/26) involves just such an inward journey for Christopher Royal who is convinced he is a coward and flees a confrontation with Harry Main who is a gunfighter. There comes a time in this story -- when Christopher encounters the aged Indian, the old wise man -- that the terrain shimmers with the multiple affinities of meaning conjured by the unconscious, which Vergil once sought to capture within an image both awesome and numina magna deum [the great divine power of a god].

Reviews

[Clay Davis · Rating 5 out of 5]

A great psychological Western. The bookcover does not depict any scene described in the story.
