Faber Stories, a landmark series of individual volumes, presents masters of the short story form at work in a range of genres and styles. In perhaps the most magnificent of what he called his 'strange stories', Robert Aickman blurs the lines between memory, premonition and the hallucinated life.

Bringing together past, present and future in our ninetieth year, Faber Stories is a celebratory compendium of collectable work.
