The Library After Dark

Fading Supernatural

Hauntings

by Vernon Lee

Four fantastic stories of 1890, among them Amour Dure, in which a historian working in an Italian archive falls for a Renaissance woman who poisoned her lovers. Vernon Lee was the pen name of Violet Paget, a writer on art and Italy. Her ghosts come out of the past the way scholarship does.
