Originally issued in 2017 in the United Kingdom in an edition of 420 copies, Nina Atonia's The Greenwood Faun, is here presented for the first time in paperback.
A strange and curious novel, steeped in the lingering incense and paganism of the fin-de-siècle.
-Phil Baker
Nina Antonia's The Greenwood Faun is a haunted, haunting work. Summoning up Lucian Taylor, the hallucinated hero of Arthur Machen's The Hill of Dreams, Nina channels the curious, captivating story of what happened to Lucian's literary masterpiece after his death, and how it both saves and destroys those who come across it after it is posthumously published. Shot through with decadence, poetry, opium, and incense, with the ghost of Lionel Johnson as psychopomp and the Great God Pan heavy in the fields, this is a beautifully written proem: witty, crepuscular, enchanting, surprising.
-David Tibet
Decadent in style and, more importantly, in spirit, The Greenwood Faun captures the lush sentiment as well as the mordant irony of the fin-de-siècle, and contrives a delicate balance between them.
- Brian Stableford
