Writer Algernon Blackwood is recognized as one of the pioneers of the genre of 'weird' fiction. He specializes in subtly creepy tales whose horrific significance gradually sneaks up on you, rather than assaulting you with gore and violence. In The Centaur, Blackwood explores the solitary life of a strangely magnetic misfit who decides to live his unusual life on his own unique terms.
