Description
Dead River, the easternmost outpost of Maine and the entire United States, grows sleepy as the summer visitors leave and a drowsiness settles over the town, surrounding forests and coastline. This quiet is broken by the screams of a woman blindly fleeing a group of enraged, bloodthirsty creatures. At the end of the season, a young editor from New York seeks peace and quiet in a secluded house by the woods, but five friends are about to pull her out of her isolation, along with something none of them could imagine even in their wildest dreams. Published in 1981, this Czech-language novel about the clash between civilization and primitivism is considered a classic of horror literature. It includes the author’s afterword and the bonus story “Winter’s Daughter”.
