Más información sobre el libro

The life of Joseph Thomas Sheridan Le Fanu reveals a gifted writer shaped by personal tragedy and a rich literary heritage. Growing up in a family of diverse roots, he began writing poetry at a young age and published his first story by 1838. His works, often set in gothic Ireland, explore themes of madness, supernatural horror, and nostalgia for the Catholic aristocracy. Following the tragic death of his wife, Le Fanu channeled his grief into his writing, becoming a prominent figure in 19th-century supernatural literature before his death in 1873.
