Emilia Francis, Lady Dilke
(4,136 Sterne; 11 Bewertungen)
Lady Emilia Dilke was a renowned author, art historian and women's activist whose supernatural weird tales often had a haunting dreamlike quality to them, some reading as esoteric and tragic fables of life and love lost with a touch of the gothic. Her prose is lyrical and eloquent, with strong characterizations and lush descriptions. Drift along with Lady Dilke as she takes you on a journey beyond reality into realms of death and magic where myths are real and what the heart desires is not always what is best.

disconcerting stories well read
Patrick Richardson
(3 Sterne)
This was not my cup of tea. The stories are decent and the reader excellent, but they were all too on the dark side for my taste. Others may enjoy them, so it may be worth a listen
Great language, great reader
