Unsettled Dust
Robert Aickman, the supreme master of the supernatural, brings together eight of his self-proclaimed strange stories. He builds dread by the steady accrual of realistic detail, until the reader realizes that the protagonist is heading towards their doom as if in a dream. The stories in this collection are constructed immaculately; the neuroses of his characters painted in subtle shades.
His characters are often lonely and middle-aged, but all have the same thing in common - they are all brought to the brink of an abyss that shows how terrifyingly fragile our piece of mind actually is.
