Under the Sunset (Collected Works of Bram Stoker)

In these nine tales of terror, the author of Dracula tells of a beautiful country far, far away, which no human eye has ever seen in waking hours. Under the sunset it lies, where the distant horizon bounds the day, and where the clouds, splendid with light and color, give a promise of the glory and beauty that encompass it. And then sin came, and things began to lose their perfect beauty.
