Join First To Knock in celebrating the launch of A Beam of Sunlight in the Deep Forest—Mystical Prose Works by Édouard Schuré at the Horse Hospital London in London on December 1st, 2021

Translator and scholar extraordinaire Sam Kunkel will discuss all things Schuré as well as Symbolist literature, the 19th century occult revival, and other intriguing bits of lost literary and philosophical history with Dr. James Machin.

Kunkel is a Chicago-born Parisian who researches and writes on fin-de-siècle literature as well as the influence of religious thought on fantastic literature. Most of you already know his fine work from Echoes of a Natural World: Tales of the Strange & Estranged.

Dr. Machin is a noted author and scholar of weird fiction, the occult, and the Gothic. He teaches at the Royal College of Art, the University of Bedfordshire, and is an Honorary Research Fellow at Birkbeck, University of London. Machin is also a co-editor of Faunus, the journal of the Friends of Arthur Machen.

Doors open at 7pm, upon which beverages and hobknobbing will ensue.

Kunkel and Machin will begin their talk at 8pm, which will be followed by a short reading and a Q&A.

Entry is free. FTK books will be on sale along with free bookmarks for all.

Spread the good word throughout town. This is going to be special.
