Arthur Christopher Benson 
Altar Fire [PDF ebook] 

The British author Arthur Christopher Benson was never content to fall back on the typical narrative structure when it came to his novels, and The Altar Fire is definitely no exception. In a series of letters, it tells the tale of a successful novelist who falls on hard times in the aftermath of finishing a large fiction project. But in addition to cataloguing tragedies, this is also a story of redemption — though the path the protagonist takes to get to a better place is unexpected.
