《书目》(Booklist)书评
Briton Benson (1867-1940) was a prolific fiction writer, known primarily for his so-called Lucia novels set in his hometown of Rye and for his ghost stories, 54 of which have now been gathered into this delightful omnibus. Benson's elegant, old-fashioned style suits perfectly these bumpings and grindings in the night; in varying guises, in different contexts, and with an array of results, the apparitions Benson creates never fail to chill and mesmerize--late-night reading fare, to be sure! ~--Brad Hooper
