The Devil's Mischief : In Which His Own Story Is Told in Words and Pictures

About this book

I present here a diabolically fascinating compilation of Devil lore and literature which I have illustrated with images both spooky and seductive - and amusingly human. I have inspired many of the greatest artists including William Blake Gustave Dore Duccio Giotto and Michelangelo. My sway over folk and popular artists continues to this day. I am also captured here with startling vitality in inventive vignettes by authors including Charles Baudelaire Ambrose Bierce Mikhail Bulgakov Anatole France John Milton Vladimir Nabokov Edgar Allan Poe Robert Louis Stevenson William Thackeray and Mark Twain. See for yourself the fruits of my inspiration.
