Description
On Battle Hill, just outside London, a group of townspeople are performing a new play by Peter Stanhope. But this hill appears to be positioned at a pivotal place in space and time, as people from the past begin to appear.
Townsfolk are transported either to heaven or hell, and Charles Walter Stansby Williams weaves a complex narrative that explores the boundaries between reality and fantasy. A member of the influential literary discussion group "The Inklings", Williams was also a British theologian, novelist, poet, playwright, and literary critic.
This 1937 novel is highly recommended for lovers of fantasy fiction, offering a unique blend of psychological insight and supernatural themes. Republished in an affordable, modern edition, this volume features the original text and artwork, making it a valuable addition to any collection of vintage literature.
