Explore "The Wave" by Algernon Blackwood on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
Since childhood days he had been haunted by a Wave.
It appeared with the very dawn of thought, and was his earliest recollection of any vividness. It was also his first experience of nightmare: a wave of an odd, dun colour, almost tawny, that rose behind him, advanced, curled over in the act of toppling, and then stood still. / It threatened, but it did not fall. It paused, hovering in a position / contrary to nature; it waited.
