The Inmost Light Arthur Machen

The Inmost Light: Large Print By Arthur Machen Machen's literary significance is substantial; his stories have been translated into many languages and reprinted in short story anthologies countless times. Machen's works was a significant part of the late Victorian revival of the gothic novel and the decadent movement of the 1890s, bearing direct comparison to the themes found in contemporary works like Robert Louis Stevenson's Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde, Bram Stoker's Dracula, and Oscar Wilde's The Picture of Dorian Gray. At the time authors like Wilde, William Butler Yeats, and Arthur Conan Doyle were all admirers of Machen's works.
