The weird of the wanderer by Frederick Rolfe and C. H. C. Pirie-Gordon is a novel written in the early 20th century. Framed as “papyrus records” discovered in a rock-tomb, it blends occult fantasy with classical and archaeological intrigue, following Nicholas Crabbe—presented as the reincarnation of Odysseus—whose magical rites propel him back into antiquity to live as King Balthazar.
