What I found most interesting was elements of the Holy Grail that Machen weaves throughout the story. The main character saw it when he was younger, with his father, and is peroccupied by it and the sense of magic it holds throughout his life.
All told, a difficult, but rewarding read, and a must for all fans of Machen ( )
