A Strange Story (Dodo Press), Edward George Earl Bulwer-Lytton, 1st Baron Lytton (1803-1873) was an English novelist, playwright, and politician. Bulwer-Lytton's literary career began in 1820, with the publication of his first book of poems. He wrote in a variety of genres, including historical fiction, mystery, romance, the occult, and science fiction. In 1828 he attracted general attention with Pelham, a humourous, intimate study of the dandyism of the age which kept gossips busy in identifying characters with public figures of the time. By 1833, he had reached the height of his popularity with Godolphin, followed by The Pilgrims of the Rhine (1834), The Last Days of Pompeii (1834), Rienzi: The Last of the Roman Tribunes (1835), and Harold: The Last of the Saxon Kings (1848). Lord Lytton was a florid, popular writer of his day, who coined such phrases as "the great unwashed", "pursuit of the almighty dollar", "the pen is mightier than the sword", and the infamous incipit "It was a dark and stormy night. ".

A Strange Story, first published in 1862, was written by the great American author Edward Bulwer Lytton. The story deals with a supernatural theme and it later had an influence on Bram Stoker's Dracula. This story is told from the perspective of Dr. Allan Fenwicke, a rational materialist who publically debunks the spiritualist beliefs of his fellow physician Dr. Lloyd and thereby hastens his demise. The mysterious, lovely and dreamy Lillian enters into the logical life of Dr. Fenwicke'S. The black magic is used effectively by the wickedly amoral Mr. Margrave to make Louis Grayle again young and Dr. Fenwicke rescues his beloved Lillian from her disaster. The story is very interesting and a true page turner that forcefully keeps the reader glued to the book till the end. A Strange Story, originally written in more than twenty parts, was initially published in serial. The book is in two book volumes- the first one is a love story, a combination of the ghosts and the supernatural and; the second book is a logical discussions over the nature of the supernatural and the metaphysics. This story, written in a florid Victorian style that prevailed at the time of its conception and publication, is a pure and great thriller.
