About this ebook
The Great God Pan is a horror and fantasy novella by Welsh writer Arthur Machen. Machen was inspired to write The Great God Pan by his experiences at the ruins of a pagan temple in Wales. The novella has been classified as Decadent literature as well, as it features hallmarks of the genre such as "occultism, paganism, non-mainstream eroticism, sexual diversity, the femme fatale, violent and strange deaths, and the simultaneous investment in and disavowal of bourgeois identities." Pan has also been described as fantasy literature and as a cautionary tale against men mistreating women the way that Raymond mistreated Mary. This edition has been fully restored with modern typesetting, custom cover design.
