About the work
The LibriVox catalogue summary, preserved with the recording, reads:
A supernatural fantasy about the mystical adventures of a lonely English boy named Jimbo--who can fly! It’s really quite beautiful and can be enjoyed by adults and teenagers alike. Be warned, however: The death of a beloved character and a creepy old house haunted by the wraith-like spirits of children makes some of this story far too scary for younger kids or indeed anyone of a sensitive disposition. Algernon Blackwood (1869-1951) was born in south London and wrote many tales of the supernatural. (Summary by Adrian Praetzellis)
