William Chambers Morrow (1854 -1923) war ein amerikanischer Journalist und Schriftsteller, der von Kollegen wie Ambrose Bierce f r seine stilistisch herausragenden Erz hlungen mit psychologischem Tiefgang und makabren Pointen in der Tradition von E.A. Poe ger hmt wurde. Wie dieser gilt Morrow heute unter Kennern als einer der wichtigsten Wegbereiter der modernen Horrorliteratur. Die hier erstmals auf Deutsch vorliegende legend re Kurzgeschichtensammlung DER AFFE, DER IDIOT UND ANDERE LEUTE aus dem Jahr 1897 blieb zu Morrows Lebzeiten die einzige Zusammenstellung seiner Stories in Buchform. Sie enth lt 14 der besten Geschichten von Morrow wie SEIN UNBESIEGBARER FEIND oder DER MONSTER-MACHER. In der Reihe UNTOTE KLASSIKER pr sentiert der JOJOMEDIA Verlag unentdeckte, vergessene oder vergriffene Highlights aus den Bereichen Horror und Unheimliche Phantastik (im angloamerikanischen Raum auch als "Weird Fiction" bezeichnet) in neuer, zeitgem er und hochwertiger Aufmachung. Jeder Band enth lt neben eigens f r die Reihe UNTOTE KLASSIKER gestalteten kunstvollen Illustrationen auch ein vertiefendes Vorwort mit ausf hrlichen Hintergrundinformationen zu Buch und Autor.
