À propos de cet audio
There are places where the common world wears thin.

In The Arthur Machen Library, the strange and visionary works of Arthur Machen are read in full: tales of ancient powers, hidden rites, haunted landscapes, forbidden knowledge, and the terrible beauty that lies just beyond ordinary sight.

Enter old woods, forgotten streets, lonely hills and secret chambers, where the modern world gives way to something older, darker, and more wonderful.

Listen closely. The veil is not so thick as it seems.Public domain
