LA PIRAMIDE DI FUOCO | I EDIZ. 1989 | ARTHUR MACHEN

This edition gathers three of Arthur Machen’s most notable tales—The Shining Pyramid, The Novel of the Black Seal, and The Novel of the White Powder—blending supernatural fiction, folk horror, and mystery. Part of La Biblioteca di Babele, curated by Jorge Luis Borges, it reflects Machen’s fascination with hidden traditions, ancient rites, and the thin boundary between the mundane and the uncanny. Through atmospheric prose and psychological tension, the stories explore encounters with otherworldly forces rooted in Celtic myth and occult lore, offering a classic of late 19th-century weird literature.
