With an introduction from S.T. Joshi, editor of \u003ci\u003eAmerican Supernatural Tales\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003ci\u003eThe White People\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eOther Weird Stories\u003c\/i\u003e is the perfect introduction to the father of weird fiction. The title story \"The White People\" is an exercise in the bizarre leaving the reader disoriented and on edge. From the first page, Machen turns even fundamental truths upside-down, as his character Ambrose explains, \"there have been those who have sounded the very depths of sin, who all their lives have never done an 'ill deed'\" setting the stage for a tale entirely without logic. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eFor more than seventy years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world.
