Kurzbeschreibung
Merricat Blackwood lives on the family estate with her sister Constance and her uncle Julian. Not long ago there were seven Blackwoods - until a fatal dose of arsenic found its way into the sugar bowl one terrible night. Acquitted of the murders, Constance has returned home, where Merricat protects her from the curiosity and hostility of the villagers. Their days pass in happy isolation until cousin Charles appears. Only Merricat can see the danger, and she must act swiftly to keep Constance from his grasp.
Über den Autor
Shirley Jackson was born in San Francisco in 1919. She first received wide critical acclaim for her short story 'The Lottery', which was published in 1948. Her novels - which include The Sundial, The Bird's Nest, Hangsaman, The Road through the Wall, We Have Always Lived in the Castle and The Haunting of Hill House - are characterised by her use of realistic settings for tales that often involve elements of horror and the occult. Raising Demons and Life Among the Savages are her two works of nonfiction. Come Along With Me is a collection of stories, lectures, and part of the novel she was working on when she died in 1965.

Evocative, mysterious and imaginative
10. Februar 2012
Format:Taschenbuch
Desperate for a satisfying fiction read, I went to my public library to revisit some of my favorite authors of old. The Library of America's selected collection of Jackson's writings included "We Have Always Lived in the Castle," with which I was not acquainted. Once started, I could not put it down. There is a mysterious and dark secret at the heart of the story. Readers of Jackson's works know that often, what appears to be an accepted truth or appearance proves to be something altogether different. In this case, two young sisters alone know the real truth about the murders that ostracized them from their small-minded neighbors in a very small town. Don't mess with these girls.
