«Te verd» is a collection of five horror stories by Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu, published by Laertes editorial in paperback (170 pages, in Catalan).
Le Fanu (1814-1873), an Irish writer born in Dublin, was known for his tales of horror, mystery and ghosts. This volume brings together five stories featuring pacts with the devil, spectral presences and murky settings, all narrated with a sour, sardonic humor that mixes sordidness, cruelty and lightness.
Number 78 in the L'Arcà collection, with translation and prologue by Roser Berdagué. Edition published in July 2000.
For fans of classic horror, the gothic tale and Victorian ghost narrative.
Joseph Thomas Sheridan Le Fanu was an Irish writer of Gothic literature, journalist and newspaper proprietor. Le Fanu is considered by literary critics to be among the greatest ghost story writers of the Victorian era, as several of his works were central to the development of the genre. He was the author of Gothic short stories and macabre poems, novels such as Uncle Silas (1864), and the collection of five stories In a Glass Darkly (1872), in which the novella Carmilla (1872) is significant as a foundational work of vampire literature.
