Sandman

E. T. A. Hoffmann

earliest edition we have, 2013 Alma Classics, 2013 160 pages

The young student Nathanael remains haunted by his childhood fears: he is convinced that Coppelius, a strange night-time visitor who used to come to his house to conduct alchemical experiments with his father, was none other than the Sandman, a mythical figure who was said to steal the eyes of children who refused to go to sleep.
