Like Wine, or Fire, or Death, or Love . . .: SYNOPSIS: Like Wine, or Fire, or Death, or Love . . .: Stevensons Dark Adventures take us deep into the realms of the gloriously bizarre and elaborately sinister. So writes Mark Valentine in his Introduction to this definitive collection of Robert Louis Stevensons fantastic and macabre stories. While Strange Case of Dr Jekyll & Mr Hyde has passed into the collective consciousness, many of Stevensons weird tales, although of seminal importance to the genre, have long been forgotten. This book seeks to redress the balance, bringing back into print the more obscure stories and collecting together the better-known into one volume. Stevensons range and inventiveness is breathtaking; from the sheer recklessness and swagger of The Suicide Club stories to the more subtle terrors of Olalla; from the macabre horror of The Body Snatcher to the exuberance and exoticism of The Isle of Voices. Even Jekyll and Hyde has the capacity to surprise the careful re-reader with its moral complexity, its inner qualities. Over a century after they were written, Stevensons stories brim with sophistication and power. And who can long resist Stevensons overt relish for the storytellers art, his mastery of style and content and his swagger in the face of the mundane and the sordidly material. . . . The excitement, the fierce joy, the delight in strangeness, the pleasure in deep and dark adventures . . .: all these burn as brightly today as they have ever done. REVIEW: 'The Suicide Club and Other Dark Adventures could hardly be improved upon. It is a substantial collection of Robert Louis Stevensons short fiction and shows the haunting hold that the strange, weird and macabre had on his imagination. You will find herein many wonderful and exemplary instances of the storytellers art, by a writer whose admirers have included Henry James, Borges, Graham Greene, Nabokov, Harry Mathews and many another writer besides.' - Paul Kane, The Compulsive Reader.
