Abstract

The article from National Review explores the life and works of Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu, a lesser-known Irish writer famous for his ghost stories. Despite being overshadowed by more prominent Irish literary figures, Le Fanu's tales of horror and mystery have left a lasting impact on the genre. His stories, such as "Green Tea" and "The Familiar," delve into themes of the supernatural and the unknown, captivating readers with their eerie and unsettling narratives. Le Fanu's legacy, once fading into obscurity, has been revived by dedicated scholars and enthusiasts who continue to appreciate and study his contributions to Gothic literature.
