About this audiobook

Far Off Things is a series of autobiographical sketches by the great Arthur Machen; notice how even in fairly mundane prose from nearly the beginning, there's a haunting quality to the words themselves. This book chronicles Machens life from his years as a child, to his early year in London. Unlike a typical autobiography, this doesn't follow a traditional chronological pattern and instead weaves in and out of time as a stream of thought. At no point is this ever a problem, and if anything gives the reader a look into Machens head. It wonderfully depicts a happy carefree childhood, the loneliness of being on your own in London, and the joy of his first publication. (Goodreads)
