Vincent Starrett (1886–1974)
Arthur Machen: A Novelist of Ecstasy and Sin
With Two Uncollected Poems by Arthur Machen
Chicago: Walter M. Hill, 1918.

An article about Arthur Machen, with two previously uncollected poems by Machen.

From the Introductory Note:
“Because, in my opinion, Arthur Machen is the outstanding artist of his time, and one of the great masters of all time, I wrote the following paper, which first appeared in Reedy’s Mirror for October 5, 1917. That issue is not now obtainable, and, as calls for it continue to come to me and to the publisher, I find ground for a belief that Machen may, at length, be coming into his own, a tardy phenomenon which I am happy to hasten so far as it lies within my power. Mr. Walter M. Hill [the publisher] shares this feeling and this brochure is the result.”
