Synopsis "Nature Green in Tooth and Claw"

Algernon Blackwood (1869-1951) was one of the pre-eminent writers of weird fiction in the first half of the 20th century. He was unexcelled at creating an atmosphere of disquiet and dread, and in many works used nature as a kind of spectral presence looming over the puny and powerless figures of humans. Nowhere is this ability more starkly shown that in two of his most famous novella-length stories, The Wendigo and The Willows, which highlight this collection of five of Blackwood's longer tales. The other three, less well-known but excellent examples of his craft, are The Man Whom the Trees Loved, The Garden of Survival and Sand.
