THE GREAT GOD PAN - by Arthur Machen - Cover art and Illustrations by Austin Osman Spare

Arthur Machen's first book, THE GREAT GOD PAN, published in 1894, is still one of the greatest works of weird horror and decadence ever produced. Arthur Machen with his taste for the bizarre and macabre, unfurls the tale of a young girl cursed by her unnatural parentage to become a creature of shape-shifting, poly-sexual, demi-human evil.

This edition includes cover art and a set of complimentary automatic line drawings by Machen's contemporary and fellow mystic AUSTIN OSMAN SPARE, as well as Machen's own illuminating introduction from the 1916 edition and a brand new foreword by Iain Smith of the Arthur Machen Society.
