Meet Edogawa Rampo, the undisputed master of Japanese suspense, psychological terror, and the grotesque widely known as "The Edgar Allan Poe of Japan." This essential collection gathers some of his most brilliant and unsettling short stories, alongside a tale that reflects the dark, uncanny folklore that inspired him. Rampo's tales are a disturbing look into obsession, identity, and the limits of the human body and mind: The Human Chair: A claustrophobic and shocking first-person confession of an obsession that hides terrifyingly in plain sight. The Hell of Mirrors: An exploration of a profound narcissism and the breakdown of reality through reflection. The Caterpillar: A chilling look at the ultimate psychological torture inflicted on a disfigured war veteran. This volume also includes The Red Stockade and Lafcadio Hearn's foundational work of Japanese supernatural folklore, The Boy Who Drew Cats, which set the stage for much of Rampo's inspiration. The Edgar Allan Poe of Japan is a must-have for fans of classic mystery, psychological horror, and those seeking the origins of modern Japanese dark fiction.
