The Great God Pan
Arthur Machen
Book Overview:
"The Great God Pan" is a novella written by Arthur Machen. On publication it was widely denounced by the press as degenerate and horrific because of its decadent style and sexual content, although it has since garnered a reputation as a classic of horror.
