The Tiger Skin

And Other Tales of the Uneasy by Violet Hunt
This collection repositions the famed literary hostess Violet Hunt in terms of her significant contribution to the development of uncanny fiction in the early twentieth century.

A meeting of lost souls in the care of a headless coachman. An obsession with eugenics descends into a cruel madness. In 1911, the British writer, feminist and literary salon hostess Violet Hunt published her groundbreaking first collection of uncanny stories, Tales of the Uneasy, exploring psychological and ghostly hauntings shot through with tragedy. Seeking to promote Hunt's achievements as a writer often obscured by the famous authors of her social set literary historian Melissa Edmundson presents a new edition of her eeriest work, including material from Hunt's 1923 volume More Tales of the Uneasy.
