The Desolate Presence and Other Uncanny Stories by Thomas Owen
Requirements: .ePUB reader, 273 KB
Overview: A holiday-maker walking on the rain-swept dunes; a motorist halting to give a lift to a stranded girl; a fogbound traveller putting up for the night at a wayside inn. The settings are common-place, but almost without our noticing it a bizarre change takes place in each. Belgian author Thomas Owen (real name Gérald Bertot) has written six collections of macabre short stories since the war. In these he has fashioned a disturbing and uniquely personal universe in which the supernatural subtly intrudes upon the real world.
