Mortal Echoes: Encounters with the End
Couldn't load pickup availability
A strange figure foretells tragedy on the railway tracks. A plague threatens to encroach upon an isolated castle. A game of scrabble between a husband and wife escalates to murderous intentions. Spanning 1839–2006, the stories in this anthology depict the haunting moment when characters come face-to-face with their own mortality. Featuring some of the finest writers in the English language – from Edgar Allan Poe to Daphne du Maurier – this collection explores humanity’s transient existence, and what it means to be alive.
