The Whimpus

Meer over het boek

Set in a fantastical world, the story features a unique race of mermaid-like fish women, exploring themes of the uncanny and the otherworldly. Originally published in 1919, it showcases Tod Robbins' distinctive style, which blends elements of horror and mystery. Despite being largely forgotten, Robbins is recognized by some critics as a significant figure in early 20th-century fiction, with only a few of his works remaining in circulation. This edition includes a new introductory biography, highlighting his contributions to the genre.
