Shirley Jackson
We Have Always Lived in the Castle
Hardcover
(The Viking Press Sept. 21, 1962)
, 1st edition
Dust jacket notes: “With her own special witchery, Shirley Jackson has once again fashioned a strange, terrible, and beautiful tale. From the very first page, a mystery hangs over the three people living in the big old house on the hill. Shunned by the villagers, they live their private life behind closed doors. As their story quietly and deftly unfolds, the reader is led into a situation both startling and macabre. The drama of its denouement, with its unforeseen aftermath, has the quality of a horror tale disguised in the most deceptive innocence. But telling the ‘story’ of a book by Shirley Jackson is as meaningless as trying to describe in words what is conveyed to the eye by a surrealist painter. For it is not just the subject about which she chooses to write, or even her ability as an immensely gifted storyteller, that distinguishes her work; it is her unique vision, illuminating the familiar.”
