The Great God Pan and The Inmost Light
London: John Lane The Bodley Head, 1894.
First edition. [vi], 168, 16 pp. Bound in publisher's dark cloth with white stamping on front and rear boards, gilt spine lettering. Near Fine with light shelf wear, old bookseller's catalogue entry pasted onto paste down, typical offsetting to endpapers. An attractive copy. The Great God Pan is an enduringly popular Gothic horror novella, quite scandalous in its time for its comparatively frank depictions of sexuality. It would inspire Bram Stoker's Dracula, Lovecraft's The Dunwich Horror, and works by Clark Ashton Smith and Stephen King.
