The fantastic tales of Fitz-James O'Brien

O'Brien, Fitz James, 1828-18622025
Books, Manuscripts
In the field of supernatural and fantastic literature, certain names come readily to mind - E.T.A. Hoffmann, Edgar Allan Poe, H.P. Lovecraft - but the name of Fitz-James O'Brien has been unjustly overlooked and nearly forgotten since his premature death in 1862 during the American Civil War. Taken together, O'Brien's few surviving stories give him an important place in the development of American fiction and remain as fresh today as when they first written more than a hundred and fifty years ago.
