| ppint. 25th Nov 2021 | david: fixed; & ta, likewise. yr hmbl srppnt. didn't realise there'd been more than one book with the identical title from the same publisher - ''category horror'' is a bit out of my interest and my specialist publishing areas: for me, if there's no dominant, or at least significant fantasy content, horror fiction either doesn't work, and so is boring - or else it *does* work, and it scares me - which i don't enjoy either... - there's some really fine fantasy with a strong thread of horror running through, of course - some of fritz leiber's best, among it; and alan garner's. . . (e.g. i, ii, iii, qq.v.) | |
| David Whiteley 24th Nov 2021 | ppint. Thanks for checking my notes and spotting the missing content which I somehow lost. There's one line that needs amending. "The Caretaker's Story", by Edith Olivier. was actually in "Monsters: A Collection of Uneasy Tales". (1934). | |
