The Friends of Arthur Machen
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Friends of Arthur Machen (FoAM) is a non-profit international literary society founded in 1998 dedicated to supporting interest in Arthur Machen and his work, and to aid research. It publishes two journals Faunus, which reprints rare Machen articles and criticism of his work, and Machenalia. It fosters interest not only in Machen, but events in which he paid a key part such as Angels of Mons and organises psychogeographic excursions too.
Prominent members include Mark Samuels, Roger Dobson, Javier Marías, Stewart Lee and Ray Russell of Tartarus Press. The society was nominated for a World Fantasy Special Award: Non-Professional in 2006.
