Sumérgete en 'Vathek' de William Beckford, una novela gótica que narra la historia del califa Vathek y su búsqueda de poderes sobrenaturales. Esta edición de Siruela, perteneciente a la colección 'La Biblioteca de Babel' dirigida por Jorge Luis Borges, ofrece una traducción de Guillermo Carnero y una selección de lecturas fantásticas. Con 155 páginas, esta obra es una joya de la literatura del siglo XIX que fusiona el orientalismo con el terror gótico.
William Thomas Beckford was a British writer and politician. He was reputed at one stage to be England's richest commoner. Beckford was the son of William Beckford and Maria Hamilton, the daughter of George Hamilton. He served as a Member of Parliament for Wells in 1784–1790 and Hindon in 1790–1795 and 1806–1820. Beckford is best known for writing the 1786 Gothic novel Vathek, for building Fonthill Abbey in Wiltshire and Beckford's Tower in Bath, and for his extensive art collection.
