Dangerous Dimensions by Henry Bartholomew

Dangerous Dimensions by Henry Bartholomew

'I have stood on the dim shore beyond time and matter and seen it. It moves through strange curves and outrageous angles. Some day I shall travel in time and meet it face to face.' Unlike nineteenth-century Gothic fiction, which tends to fixate on the past, the haunted and the ghostly, early weird fiction probes the very boundaries of reality - the laws and limits of time, space and matter. Here, unimaginable terrors lurk in hitherto unknown mirror dimensions, calamities in ultra-space threaten to wipe clean all evidence of our universe and experiments in non-Euclidean geometry lead to sickening consequences. In twelve speculative tales of our universe's mathematics and physics gone awry, this new anthology presents an abundance of curiosities - and terrors - with stories from Jorge Luis Borges, Miriam Allen deFord, Frank Belknap Long and Algernon Blackwood.

Henry Bartholomew is a doctoral researcher at the University of Exeter specialising in Speculative Realism, literary theory, and Gothic fiction, with an emphasis on late 19th and early 20th century authors. His published writings include work on Algernon Blackwood, dark ecology, psychoanalysis, and the 'uncanny'.
