Lata powojenne, Anglia. Czterdziestoletni doktor Faraday trafia do podupadłej posiadłości, będącej od paru stuleci własnością Ayresów, zubożałej rodziny ziemiańskiej. Dwór, dawniej piękny i okazały, popada w ruinę. Park i ogrody zarosły chwastami, a wskazówki zegara na stajni znieruchomiały na godzinie za dwadzieścia dziewiąta. Zdziwaczała pani Ayres, jej niezależna córka i ambitny, zagubiony syn, który nigdy nie wrócił do siebie po katastrofie samolotowej, bezskutecznie próbują iść z duchem czasu.

Mijają dni i dom staje się tłem mrocznych, niepokojących zdarzeń. Faraday nie wie, że losy rodziny, której usiłuje przyjść z pomocą, nieodłącznie splotą się z jego własnymi. Czy zdoła zapobiec tragedii?

Mistrzyni fabuły przygotowała dla nas kolejną niespodziankę. Jedno jest pewne: nie będziemy rozczarowani.

The family is from another world, a world of glamour and money and condescension, a world which disappeared with WWII but the fa...

3.0 The Little Stranger
The Little Stranger is an atmospheric read and has a nice gothic feel to it. And I really liked the way how Sarah Waters describes the dilapidated house, Hundreds Hall. The house feels like a sinister character of its own. But I had some issues with this book: 1. The book is too long and the story...

3.0 The Little Stranger
This was a very slow-burn type of novel. It definitely managed horror, at least in atmosphere, but the ending was not quite what I expected. I had rather hoped for something more "traditional" for this genre, although I didn't dislike it once I had thought about it for a bit. In terms of explai...

3.0 The Little Stranger - Sarah Waters
The Little Stranger is a story of Hundreds Hall. A crumbling mansion in rural Warwickshire, Hundreds in 1946 is home to the Ayres family, a faded shadow of an ancient aristocracy. Narrated by an outsider, Dr Faraday (yes, really), the novel is a sort of modern reworking of those heavily atmospheric ...
