The Great Return is a collection of short stories written by Arthur Machen, a Welsh author and mystic who was known for his supernatural and horror fiction. The book was first published in 1915 and contains eight tales that explore themes of the occult, the supernatural, and the unknown. In each story, Machen weaves a web of mystery and intrigue, drawing readers into a world where the veil between the mundane and the extraordinary is thin. From the eerie landscapes of rural Wales to the bustling streets of London, these stories take readers on a journey through the darker corners of the human psyche. Machen's writing is characterized by his vivid descriptions, his use of archaic language, and his ability to create a sense of unease and foreboding. The Great Return is a must-read for fans of horror and supernatural fiction, as well as those interested in the occult and the paranormal.They were purged as if they had passed through the Furnace of the Sages governed with Wisdom that the alchemists know. They spoke without much difficulty of what they had seen, or had seemed to see, with their eyes, but hardly at all of what their hearts had known when for a moment the glory of the fiery rose had been about them.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
