About this listen

The Green Book is a precious artefact procured from the possessions of a dead woman, and carefully kept in secret by the aged and studious Ambrose. Cotgrave is loaned the Green Book to further his understanding of the occult secrets that Ambrose is so reluctant to talk about.

FNH Audio presents an unabridged reading of this supernatural classic that's often cited as an inspiration for H.P. Lovecraft.

The White People is a pagan classic & Arthur Machen remains very influential- wit all of this going for it, how did this shockingly poor narrator manage to get it all so very wrong?

His speedy pace, dreary, charmless narration & inability to get under the skin of the characters wreck the book.

This needs to be redone by a different narrator.

A missed chance.
