    y separately published work icon Shadows and Silence Barbara Roden (editor), Christopher Roden (editor), Ashcroft : Ash Tree Press , 2000 Z1926667 2000 anthology short story horror 'The ghost story, in its many guises, continues to thrive, despite being written off many times over the past half-century, perhaps most notably by H. R. Wakefield, one of the masters of the genre, who wrote in 1961: 'I believe ghost story writing to be a dying art.' Wakefield could not have been more wrong; and the rich legacy of such writers in the genre as Wakefield himself, M. R. James, and Robert Aickman, who were all able to hint at horror rather than spell it out, is apparent in the twenty-five stories in Shadows and Silence. There is horror here in abundance; but it is a haunting horror, which clearly demonstrates that the example given has been followed by the present day practitioners whose work appears in this volume' (www.amazon.com). Ashcroft : Ash Tree Press , 2000 pg. 221-237
