Probably to ensure distinction he changed his name to FitzJames OBrien and emigrated to the United States of America in 1852. There he contributed writings to a number of periodicals including The Lantern, The Home Journal, The New York Times, Harpers Magazine, Vanity Fair and others. The Atlantic Monthly published what is possibly most famous story, The Diamond Lens, a tale that was admired for its quality by H. P. Lovecraft. OBriens From Hand to Mouth, 1858, has been described as the most striking example of surrealistic fiction to predate Alice in Wonderland. OBrien also penned early, short science fiction tales of robot rebellion and invisibility. At the outbreak of the American Civil War he joined the federal cause enlisting initially in the 7th New York National Guard before being promoted to the staff of General F. W Lander. He was severely wounded in early 1862, during a skirmish with Confederate forces, and though he lingered for some time he eventually died of tetanus at Cumberland in Maryland. This very substantial collection of OBriens fiction contains thirtyseven short stories of the strange and unusual including From Hand to Mouth, The Legend of Barlagh Cave, The Other Night and... | Fitz-James O'Brien The Collected Supernatural & Weird Fiction of Fitz-James in White
