This volume is a perfect companion for both the Meyrink scholar and the first-time Meyrink reader, containing as it does the whole gamut of Meyrink's writing from his love of the bizarre, the grotesque and the macabre to the spine-chilling occult tales and his quest to know what is on the `Other Side of the Mirror'. Gustav Meyrink has left behind a unique body of work, which can be sampled and enjoyed in The Dedalus Meyrink Reader.

The Dedalus Meyrink Reader has excerpts from all the translated books and a whole section of hitherto untranslated material including the stories from the collection Fledermause and autobiographical articles.

It established his reputation as the master of the occult and the grotesque. Dedalus is part of the European-wide movement championing Meyrink's work. Dedalus has made all of Meyrink's major work available in English.In 2008 Dedalus published the first English language biography of Gustav Meyrink, Vivo: The Life of Gustav Meyrink by Mike Michell.
