A GEOGRAPHY OF HORROR

‘A Warning to the Curious’ centenary edition

 

Dr Lindsey Scott, who organised the wonderful M.R. James symposium, ‘Sequestered Places, Heaving Seas’ at the University of Suffolk in April 2024, pointed out that 2025 marks the centenary of the publication of ‘A Warning to the Curious’, one of James’ finest stories. Inspired by this, the third edition of A Geography of Horror is a special extended ‘Warning’ centenary edition, with extra pictures and analysis, and the story itself.

With his close matching of text and landscape, Loxley provides an absorbing read for James aficionados and a handy companion for any traveller straying into antique churches or roaming lonely heaths or beaches…    FORTEAN TIMES

A mini-masterpiece, and an absolute ‘must’ for anyone who
has read M.R. James.

A concise and considered history of both the ghost story as a genre, and a thoughtful critical appraisal of James as a writer… on occasions it reminded me of W.G. Sebald…. R.W., Aldeburgh (via email)
