About the book
Arthur Machen's first book, THE GREAT GOD PAN, published in 1894, is still one of the greatest works of weird horror and decadence ever produced. Arthur Machen with his taste for the bizarre and macabre, unfurls the tale of a young girl cursed by her unnatural parentage to become a creature of shape-shifting, poly-sexual, demi-human evil.
