Sinopsis

First published in 1874, “Cobwebs from an Empty Skull” is a collection of incredible fables, philosophical discussions and surprising stories by American short story writer Ambrose Bierce. Bierce was a prolific and versatile writer regarded as one of the most influential journalists in the United States, and as a pioneering writer of realist fiction. For his horror writing, Michael Dirda ranked him alongside Edgar Allan Poe and H. P. Lovecraft.

“Cobwebs from an Empty Skull” is divided into three sections: "Fables of Zambri, the Parsee," an assortment of over 100 fables; "Brief Seasons of Intellectual Dissipation," discussions between a fool and a philosopher, a doctor and a soldier, respectively; and "Divers Tales," 28 different stories of an eclectic nature, including The Grateful Bear, Dr. Deadwood, I Presume, Mrs. Dennison's Head, and Jim Beckwourth's Pond.
