The Monster by Edgar Saltus is a classic horror novel published in 1899. The story revolves around a wealthy and mysterious man named Felix Volkbein who lives in a secluded mansion in Vienna. Volkbein is a collector of rare and exotic animals, but he is also rumored to have a dark and sinister side. When a young American woman named Mary Ogden arrives in Vienna to study music, she becomes fascinated by Volkbein and his strange world. But as she gets closer to him, she begins to uncover the truth about his past and the terrible secret he is hiding. The novel is a gripping and atmospheric tale of love, obsession, and horror, with vivid descriptions of Vienna's dark and decadent underworld. Saltus's writing is rich and poetic, and he creates a haunting and unforgettable portrait of a man consumed by his own monstrous desires. The Monster is a must-read for fans of classic horror fiction and Gothic literature.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
