16 August 2025
At Wormwoodiana, Douglas A. Anderson reproduces an 1896 article from The Gentleman's Magazine, "The Age of Genius" by David Lindsay. Is it the same David Lindsay as wrote A Voyage to Arcturus? Read the article at Wormwoodiana.
Lindsay novels written prior to Arcturus
9 August 2025
Something of a revelation over at the Wormwoodiana blog, as Mark Valentine unearths some new biographical information about David Lindsay. Lindsay, it turns out, wrote and submitted two novels much earlier than A Voyage to Arcturus: Aletheus (or Altheus) in 1902, and The Confessions of an Egoist in 1908.
For the full story, see Mark Valentine's article Before Arcturus: David Lindsay's Lost Novels over at Wormwoodiana.
