Description

This first collection of tales by Rosalie Parker contains eight stories that explore the uncanny in the modern world As Glen Cavaliero observes in his introduction like all good stories of the preternatural these in The Old Knowledge have a subversive effect In them the world of logical predictable reality is seen to be at risk from rejected modes of knowledge which can thwart the materialist and victimise those innocents who stumble into another order of reality
