'Haunted Hour; an anthology' Summary
Haunted Hour is an anthology of poems that delve into the realm of ghosts and spirits. Margaret Widdemer, the author and compiler of the collection, defines ghost poems as those that depict the return of spirits to the world of the living, excluding poems that present spirits in metaphorical or dreamlike contexts. The poems in this anthology offer a variety of perspectives on the supernatural, encompassing tales of ghostly encounters, explorations of the afterlife, and reflections on the enduring impact of death. Widdemer's masterful use of language and imagery creates a haunting and thought-provoking experience for the reader. The poems in Haunted Hour are a testament to the enduring power of the supernatural to inspire both fear and wonder.Book Details
