Na contracapa:

In Albion's Eco-eerie: TV and Movies of the Haunted Generation Phil

Smith takes us through a selection of weird films and TV shows and 

uncovers a wholly unexpected ecological and political message.

Unlike most approaches to folk horror or hauntology, we are

interested here in an alternative reading; one that attends to the

unhuman characters, the materials and the edgeland spaces.

A hobgoblinology.

"It is a bold book that takes the weaving path or blood, trauma and

sensuality away from Folk Horror and fashionable 'hauntology' into

new, enchanted spaces. Digging up and doubling down on messy

ideas and demon lovers that exist not to elevate us to

transcendence but to immerse us in the mud of grotty instinct".

Stephen Volk, author of Ghostwatch

"Albion's Eco-eerie is a fantastic exploration into culture's obsession

with 'the other'. Dissecting some of our most regarded folk horror

creations to present us with the political and theoretical heart that

beats inside. How our desire for escape through paralell worlds

holds the key for a deeper future. The perfect companion to Mark

Fisher's The Weird and the Eerie."

Maxine Peake, actor and political activist

Phil Smith is the author of many books including Goblin Queens and

Qualia Knights and Mythogeography: On Walking.
