Synopsis: |
A Special Place, Peter Straub 's first published novella, will come to stand as one of the author 's most deeply unsettling works of fiction. A rumination on the nature of evil, the story centers on a boy, Keith Hayward, who is drawn by his nature to an irresistible fascination with death and the taking of life. His father 's brother, the good-looking, suave Uncle Till the infamous ladykiller, who has led a shadowy career as a local celebrity recognizes his nephew 's innermost nature and gleefully tutors him in art of doing ill without getting caught. Even a cold-blooded sociopath must learn some lessons in survival, in seems, and Uncle Till is only happy to provide a tutorial, in the latest imaginative and disturbing work from one of America's most celebrated horror writers. |
