Om denne bog

From the legends of King Arthur embedded in the rocky splendour of Tintagel to the folklore and mysticism of Stonehenge, English Heritage sites are often closely linked to native English myths. Following on from the bestselling ghost story anthology Eight Ghosts, this new collection of stories inspired by the legends and tales that swirl through the history of eight ancient historical sites.

Including an essay by James Kidd on the importance of myth to our landscape and our fiction, and an English Heritage survey of sites and associated legends, These Our Monsters is an evocative collection that brings new voices and fresh creative alchemy to our story-telling heritage.

Author and atmospheric locations include:

  • Edward Carey - Bury St Edmunds Abbey
  • Sarah Hall - Castlerigg and other stone circles
  • Paul Kingsnorth - Stonehenge
  • Alison MacLeod - Down House
  • Graeme Macrae Burnet - Whitby Abbey
  • Sarah Moss - Berwick Castle
  • Fiona Mozley - Carlisle Castle
  • Adam Thorpe - Tintagel Castle

With original black-and-white illustrations by Clive Hicks-Jenkins
