A Modern Mephistopheles, and A Whisper in the Dark

Více o knize

Exploring themes of human evil, lust, and deception, this collection features two of Alcott's lesser-known short stories, "A Modern Mephistopheles" and "A Whisper in the Dark." The former follows Felix Canaris, a struggling writer whose life takes a dark turn after a suicide attempt. Known primarily for her children's literature, Alcott's early works delve into the macabre, making this volume a compelling read for fans of chilling narratives. The book is republished in a modern edition, preserving the original text and artwork.
