Never republished since its first edition in 1922, this is a lost gem of twentieth-century supernatural fiction, and foregrounds the exciting work of an overlooked author.Fox’s offbeat but effective prose was championed by China Mieville as part of his reason for choosing Fox’s novel Ape’s Face as one of his six favourite books in The Week (2016).
