Zusatztext "There are a few writers who are special. They make the world in their books; or rather! they open a window or a door or a magic casement! and they show you the world in which they live. Ramsey Campbell! for example! writes stories that! read in quantity! will re-form your world into a grey and ominous place in which strange shapes flicker at the corner of your eyes! and a patch of smoke or a blown plastic shopping bag takes on some kind of ghastly significance."
