"WANTED, by Retired Clergyman, Secretarial Assistant with courage and imagination. Tenor voice and some knowledge of Hebrew essential; single; unworldly. Apply Philip Skale." Robert Spinrobin needed the work, and he took the bait. He possessed the necessary qualifications: a thin tenor voice, not unmusical; a smattering of Hebrew which he had picked up at Cambridge because he liked the fine, high-sounding names of deities and angels; and courage and imagination. It was a job he lived to regret. For he was meant to be the final note in a "human chord" designed to call out the true name of God . . . which could prove the greatest blessing or the worst curse in all of creation!

When Robert Spinrobin, drifting through life in a daydream, answers a newspaper ad asking for an imaginative tenor with a grasp of ancient languages, he soon finds himself travelling to rural Wales and the home of ex-clergyman, Philip Skale. Here Skale, the housekeeper Mrs. Mawle and her niece, Miriam, have been pursuing a new science, harnessing sound to discover the true names of people - and recording the uncanny phenomena and transformations that this naming ritual brings in the subject. With possibilities of mind-melding and sublime spiritual awakenings already documented, it is not long before Skale pivots towards a grander master plan to intone a forbidden name beyond the preserve of humanity - while a gathering storm of disastrous cosmic consequences threatens to break. First published in 1910 but lost for most of the twentieth century, Blackwood's tour-de-force novel is long overdue rediscovery. Featuring a new, incisive introduction from one of the foremost experts on Blackwood, Mike Ashley.

The Wave

The Wave

In The Wave, Algernon Blackwood has written a story of reincarnation in the style that has won him fame, and of which he is peculiarly and essentially the master. It is mystical and absorbing, and the style is as delightful as the plot is thrilling. To attempt to reveal the scheme of the story would be to spoil it for the reader. It is, therefore, better to say that "The Wave" is a novel well worth reading -- more particularly for those who enjoy the mystical. Such persons will revel in the adventures of Thomas Kelverdon, haunted from boyhood by the premonition of a great wave that would at some moment of his life rise behind him and break over him. It never did, but the feeling that it would was almost always present with him. He was not in fear of drowning, but nevertheless was haunted by the wave's presence. Anyone who has read "Julius Le Vallon," "John Silence," "Ten Minute Stories," etc., by the same author, will be pleased to read "The Wave," which is quite as good in its way as any of its predecessors. (From a review in The Brooklyn Daily Eagle, Brooklyn, New York, 24 February 1917).
