À propos de ce livre

A cursed whistle dug up on a beach, a manuscript that seems to write back, a cathedral stall carved with something that watches — M.R. James built his reputation on scholars and academics who go looking for old secrets and find them entirely too well-preserved. No castles, no lightning: just quiet libraries, dusty archives, and the growing certainty that you are no longer alone in the room.

The collection that essentially founded the modern ghost story genre — still cited by horror writers today as the blueprint for dread that builds instead of jump-scares that startle.
