Arthur Machen 
Far Off Things [EPUB ebook] 

Dukung

‘Well, as I say, I found myself on a certain night a partaker of all this cheerfulness. I was one guest among many; there were explorers and ambassadors and great scientific personages and judges, and the author who has given the world the best laughter that it has enjoyed since Dickens died: in a word, I was in much more distinguished company than that to which I am accustomed. And after dinner the Persians (as I will call them) have a kindly and courteous custom of praising their guests; and to my astonishment and delight the speaker brought me into his oration and said the kindest and most glowing things imaginable about a translation I once made of the ‘Heptameron’ of Margaret of Navarre. I was heartily pleased; I hold with Foker in ‘Pendennis’ that every fellow likes a hand. Praise is grateful, especially when there has not been too much of it.’
‘Far Off Things’ is a series of autobiographical sketches by the great Arthur Machen; notice how even in fairly mundane prose from nearly the beginning, there’s a haunting quality to the words themselves.
