Beschreibung

Clotilde Graves was known for challenging convention. In her early years, she was known as the dramatist "Clo Graves", but became better known under her fiction-writing persona, "Richard Dehan". She transgressed contemporary gender norms by dressing in male attire, wearing her hair short, and smoking in public. This border crossing can be seen also in her work, which encompasses a wide variety of forms and modes. And while she wrote relatively few fantastical stories, she was devoted to tales of lingering revenants, mysterious cryptids, and grotesque sciences-often laced with her sardonic sense of humour. This volume seeks to recover this side of Graves's writing by including stories from across her career, which challenge definition and range across the speculative genres.

Über den Autor

Clotilde Graves (1863-1932) was born in Co. Cork on 3 June 1863. Often unconventional and uncompromising, she not only adopted a male pseudonym, but male dress and manners as well. Under the name "Richard Dehan", she wrote historical novels as well as several collections of short stories. Her popular novel The Dop Doctor found success on the screen in 1915. Graves retired in 1928 to a convent in Hatch End, Middlesex, where she died on 3 December 1932.
