Christopher Tompkins (Darkly Bright Press) returns to the show to discuss the literary theories of horror author, Arthur Machen. Machen wrote about his views of literature in many places, but most extensively in his book, Hieroglyphics. We discuss Machen's ideas, his view on ecstasy, and why he considers Homer to be Fine Literature, but not Jane Austen.
