This is a collection of short stories.

I am obsessed with doomed (Ant)arctic explorations. I was thrilled when the British Library added this to their Tales of the Weird series. This book explores both polar regions through nautical oddities, explorer’s madness, and supernatural creatures. In a way, all of these things can exist in a world so remote. It’s not as if any of us can go investigate for ourselves. We have to take the word of those that have been, and survived. https://www.mwgerard.com/books-long-weekend/
