Description
by Sheridan Le Fanu (Author)
In a Glass Darkly is a collection of five short stories by Sheridan Le Fanu, first published in 1872, a year before his death. The stories, which belong to the gothic horror and mystery genres, are presented as selections from the posthumous papers of the occult detective Dr. Martin Hesselius. They are: Green Tea, The Familiar, Mr. Justice Harbottle, The Room in the Dragon Volant, and Carmilla. Carmilla being the tale of a lesbian vampire, set in Styria, Austria, this greatly influenced Bram Stoker in the writing of Dracula. It also served as the basis for several films including Hammer's "The Vampire Lovers" and Danish director Carl Theodor Dreyer's "Vampyr".
