About the Author
Walter John de la Mare (1873 - 1956) was an English poet, short story writer and novelist. He is probably best remembered for his works for children, for his poem "The Listeners" and for a small yet highly acclaimed selection of subtle psychological horror stories, amongst them "Seaton's Aunt" and "All Hallows." His 1921 novel Memoirs of a Midget won the James Tait Black Memorial Prize for fiction and his post-war Collected Stories for Children won the 1947 Carnegie Medal for British children's books. --Wikipedia

Paperback. Condition: Good. Walter de la Mare was a 20th century novelist, short story writer and poet. He is best known for his children's stories. His love of imagination made his children's books very popular, but this also may have contributed to his other writings being taken less seriously. The Listener is his most famous work. In The Return Arthur Lawford falls asleep in a graveyard on the tomb of Nicholas Sabathier. When he awakes he is horrified to find out that he now has the face of Sabathier. This psychological horror novel asks questions such as how do you react when your husband comes home with a different man's face? How is your life effected by your having a different face?
