Anyone who reads The Book of Jade will quickly notice a few things: the author of this collection of poems holds a pessimistic, misanthropic view of life, and his obsessions lean towards the macabre, particularly focusing on themes of death, darkness, graves, corpses, and a longing to rest among the worms. The collection presents a world where God is portrayed as foolish, other people as imbeciles, and the fate of the dead as something to be envied. Certainly not light-hearted fare! Although The Book of Jade was initially published anonymously, it didn’t take long for readers to discover the identity of its author when the obituary of David Park Barnitz, a young oriental studies scholar who passed away mere weeks after the book’s publication, admitted as much. Though somewhat uneven in quality, the work has garnered admiration from figures such as H. P. Lovecraft, Donald Wandrei, and Clark Ashton Smith, firmly establishing its place in the canon of decadent literature. This edition includes all the poems of the original 1901 edition, as well as the poem “After-Life,” which was published in Overland Monthly. This book is part of the Standard Ebooks project, which produces free public domain ebooks.

"Some poetry is like the wind-sometimes it moves you, sometimes it blows right through you, sometimes it goes right over your head. Sometimes, you can perceive the impact it will have, and sometimes, you can't. It swirls and can lift our spirits. It can challenge us to soar to new heights or expose us to great peril. "Such is the poetry that Apryl has gifted us with in this volume. It moves you, sometimes in ways that you're not even sure how you're being moved. It leaves you feeling like a gentle breeze just thrust you into a new place, a new position, a new thought, a new feeling. You don't know it but you've been changed. You have entered into a new world. You've seen through a new window and you have changed. "As you move through the pages of this book, you may find yourself, you may find experiences of power, of passion, of love, of time, of place-moments that change you, moments that expose you, moments that heal. But, you will never be the same." -Dr. Stacy L. Scott, co-author of The Confidence Project: A Journey Through the Confidence Constellation, a #1 New Release in Educator Biographies on Amazon, 2021
