HTML: Regarded by many critics and fans alike as one of Arthur Machen's finest works, the novel The Secret Glory is a retelling of a story that fascinated the author throughout his lifetime: the quest for the Holy Grail. The quest is carried out by the unlikeliest of heroes: a young orphan who is regarded as a worthless layabout by everyone around him. .No library descriptions found. |

What I found most interesting was elements of the Holy Grail that Machen weaves throughout the story. The main character saw it when he was younger, with his father, and is peroccupied by it and the sense of magic it holds throughout his life.
All told, a difficult, but rewarding read, and a must for all fans of Machen ( )
