Die Maske von Robert W. Chambers | Der König in Gelb (Hörbuch)

"I don't wear a mask." Welcome to the second act of madness. Experience "The Mask," one of the most atmospheric and unsettling stories from Robert W. Chambers' legendary cult collection, *The King in Yellow*. Paris in the late 19th century: Young American sculptor Boris Yvain makes a discovery that transcends the boundaries of science. He develops a beautiful, crystal-clear liquid that transforms any living being into pure, perfectly veined marble in seconds. A tragic love triangle develops between Boris, the painter Alec, and the beautiful Geneviève. But when the forbidden play "The King in Yellow" enters their studio, art, love, alchemy, and madness merge into an unstoppable nightmare... Rich in Victorian decadence and the creeping, toxic influence of Carcosa, this story is an absolute masterpiece of weird fiction.
