About This Item
308 deckle-edged pages. Book club edition. Book is in great condition; the dust jacket just has a few small tears. A man finds that with the use of certain hallucinogenic drugs, he is able to travel between his time and the 14th century. Described on the flyleaf as an ancient/modern Gothic tale. Some aspects of the story make me wonder if it wasn't a bit influential in the composition of Stephen King's and Peter Straub's The Talisman. (I'm just speculating, you'll have to ask them.)
