"For in a world of uncertainty this one thing is absolutely certain: that we have no real knowledge of any material thing whatsoever. The only real knowledge is of spiritual things, and that is in the possession of the saints, the poets, and the painters."
In the late 1920s, Arthur Machen explored mystery as a columnist for a weekly newspaper, The Observer. Every Sunday, readers discovered delightful and curious investigations into the strange and the unusual. Though it lasted only a year, Machen's column found a lively and interactive audience as he discussed Grail legends, fairy stories, psychic phenomena, myth-making, and among other queer things, his own experience with a ghost. As with the previous volumes in this informal series, A Reader of Curious Books and Mist and Mystery, this installment will grant Machen enthusiasts and scholars access to a body of fine work which has been largely inaccessible for nearly a century
