Livre Edition originale
Octavo, cloth. First edition. "One of the most decadent of the Russian symbolists, his work is haunted by images of death and sexuality. Like Poe and Baudelaire, to whom his work has been compared, Sologub was an alchemist with words, able to transmute his morbid obsessions into beautifully stylized prose and verse that is among the finest in Russian literature . Sologub's short stories and poetry explore his Symbolist themes in a more concise form: death, often of children; perversity; and diabolism all much in evidence ." - Sullivan (ed), The Penguin Encyclopedia of Horror and the Supernatural, p. 394. "Display Copy" written in ink at upper edge of the half title page. A fine copy in very good or better dust jacket with some rubbing, mostly to front panel. (#159285).
