Matthew Holness In 1919 Sigmund Freud published an essay that delved deep into the tradition of horror writing and claimed to understand one of its darkest tricks. Like a mad scientist, he performed literary vivisection on a still-breathing body of work, exploring its inner anatomy, and pulling out mysterious organs for classification. His aim: to present to the world a complete theory of ‘das unheimliche’, the uncanny.
In the spirit of this great experiment, 14 leading authors have here been challenged to write fresh fictional interpretations of what the uncanny might mean in the 21st century, to update Freud’s famous checklist of what gives us the creeps, and to give the hulking canon of uncanny fiction a shot in the arm, a shock to the neck-bolts...

从(奥地利精神分析学家)西格蒙德•弗洛伊德在1919年发表的经典文献中汲取精髓,转而将触角深入至传统的恐怖小说中,这部全新的当代文学小说再度诠释了弗洛伊德令人信服的关于自杀者暗恐心理的理论,或是其中离奇的故事。 特别指向独具创新性领域里一些最著名的,和当今颇具名望的恐怖小说作家作品。 如A. S. Byatt,Christopher Priest, Hanif Kureishi,Frank Cottrell Boyce,Matthew Holness和不服输的Ramsey Campbell — 这部在结构上精确封装的实验性报告可以说是标志着这个奇幻的21世纪科技的飞速发展。文中巧妙地叙述了那些夜晚遇鬼离奇事件背后的真相,这部令人激动的现代合集小说不仅仅是献给恐怖小说爱好者的必备读物,同时也是对这个恐怖领域的最好诠释。
