Description: I had been staying just within the shadow of the exit of the great rift. Now without volition on my part I drifted out of the semi - darkness and began to move slowly toward the House. Amidst the din of roaring water in a chasm where a house once stood in an isolated corner of Ireland a manuscript is discovered entitled The House on the Borderland. Penned by the enigmatic Recluse it tells of a revelatory descent into the uncanny. For the Recluse seems to have discovered another land and in it another House; a jade - green double of his own in a realm rife with beasts and cosmic beings without name encroaching on the bounds of reality itself. With a new introduction by Ann Vander Meer exploring why Hodgson's tale is the perfect embodiment of a weird novel this edition of the 1908 cult classic still thrums with the visionary energy which influenced countless writers including H. P. Lovecraft and Terry Pratchett.
