Reader's note

A 1954 edition of A Book of Strange Stories chosen by Herbert van Thal! This is a collection of thirteen terrific tales of the supernatural. However, some of them cannot be classed as 'strange' - for example, Aldous Huxley's "The Dwarfs", Phyllis Bentley's "Nemesis", Margery Sharp's "The Second Step", and Dylan Thomas's entertaining "A Visit to Grandpa's". To chill the spine there are such stories as "Man-size in Marble" by E. Nesbit, usually remembered now only for her books for children; "The Cyprian Cat" by the distinguished detective-story writer Dorothy L. Sayers; Gerald Bullett's "Dearth's Farm"; and L.P. Hartley's "The Island".
