In this enigmatic collection, Robert W. Chambers blends horror, fantasy, and romantic drama. The early stories revolve around a forbidden play that drives readers to madness; the later ones explore passion, art, and disillusionment in Belle Époque Paris. The King in Yellow weaves realism and decay with supernatural echoes, foreshadowing Lovecraft's cosmic horror with a unique melancholic elegance.

This book contains the following stories: The Repairer of Reputations / The Mask / In the Court of the Dragon / The Yellow Sign / The Demoiselle d'Ys / The Prophets' Paradise / The Street of the Four Winds / The Street of the First Shell / The Street of Our Lady of the Fields / Rue Barrée.
