The Great Return

Meer over het boek

Set against the backdrop of 1915 London, the novella transports readers from a bleak urban landscape to a mystical village in western Wales, recently touched by three ancient saints and the Holy Grail. This transformative event ignites a profound reawakening in both the land and its inhabitants. Machen's distinctive writing style eschews concrete details, instead offering an ethereal glimpse into humanity's encounter with the divine, blending themes of horror with ecstatic spirituality.
