A quick post here to recommend a new book from Alchemy Press, which collects (often in expanded and revised forms) a bunch of essays Mike Barrett has published in the last decade on older writers of weird fiction. Three originally appeared in Wormwood, and others appeared in Dark Horizons, Fantasy Commentator, and The New York Review of Science Fiction. Introduction by Ramsey Campbell. The full contents are listed below, but Doors to Elsewhere can be order from Amazon by clicking here for the UK (£10.99) and here for the US ($17.00).
