O ovoj e-knjizi
VINTAGE CLASSICS//WEIRD GIRLS: Dive into the depraved, delectable depths of women’s weird fiction.
A craftsman by day and worshipper of the occult by night, Dirk Renswoude is wildly intelligent, ruthlessly cunning and deeply devoted to evil. When fate brings the dashing Thierry to his door, the pair are astonished to find their hidden obsessions with the black arts mirrored in another. Under the cover of a hushed midnight sky a sudden, intimate bond is ignited.
Lead by Dirk’s wicked brilliance, the young occultists set off on a journey to hone their craft, traversing the weird woodlands and haunted libraries of medieval Europe. Yet as his talents grow, it becomes increasingly clear that Dirk will stop at nothing to fulfil his dark desires and keep Thierry at his side, all while hiding one precious secret.
First published in 1909, Black Magic is the rediscovered tale of a dazzling anti-hero, with a remarkable twist.
'A subtle and complex thriller . . . consistently undermines the reader’s expectations: Schemers become saints, murderers turn out to be self-sacrificing and the diabolically wicked gradually earn our sympathy and respect.' Washington Post
The VINTAGE CLASSICS//WEIRD GIRLS series ventures into the dark heart of the uncanny with disturbing, and disturbed, protagonists who dare to defy the norm. Bold, deviant, chilling and enchanting, these tales of the weird are strange enough to get lost in.
