This collection contains short stories translated for the first time as well as stories featured in Dedalus anthologies. Together with volume 1 they comprise the most comprehensive collection of Meyrink short stories to appear in English.

‘Meyrink's short stories epitomised the non-plus-ultra of all modern writing. Their magnificent colour, their spine-chilling and bizarre inventiveness, their aggression, their succinctness of style, their overwhelming originality of ideas, which is so evident in every sentence and phrase that there seem to be no lacunae.’Max Brod

‘His stories recall Gogol in their black, humorous vigour.’The European Books of the Year
