Description

Step into a world where the mundane meets the marvellous, where the everyday is tinged with the supernatural, and where humour dances with the macabre. This delightful short story collection, long out of print and now lovingly republished by Alpha Editions, invites readers back to the whimsical yet eerie corridors of Victorian England. Here, comedic curses unravel lives with a satirical twist, offering a unique blend of supernatural humour that will appeal to fans of F. Anstey and aficionados of British satire alike.
Set against the backdrop of the late 19th century and the dawn of the Edwardian era, these tales capture the essence of a time when the boundaries between the ordinary and the extraordinary were deliciously blurred. This edition is not just a reprint - it's a collector's item and a cultural treasure, restored for today's and future generations to appreciate the wit and charm of Victorian literature.
For those who revel in the works of Jerome K. Jerome or the light-hearted escapades found in PG Wodehouse, this collection offers a similarly enchanting experience. As you turn each page, you'll find yourself immersed in a world where every shadow holds a secret and every laugh echoes with the past. Rediscover this forgotten gem, a testament to the enduring allure of humorous fiction and the timeless appeal of stories that transcend the ordinary.
