The Other
by Thomas Tryon
from Millipede Press
Entranced and terrified, the reader of The Other is swept up in the life of a Connecticut country town in the thirties-and in the fearful mysteries that slowly darken and overwhelm it.
Originally published in 1971, The Other is one of the most influential horror novels ever written. Its impeccable recreation of small-town life and its skillful handling of the theme of personality transference between thirteen-year-old twins led to widespread critical acclaim for the novel, which was successfully filmed from Thomas Tryon's own screenplay.
This edition features original artwork by surrealist artist Harry O. Morris.
Lady
by Thomas Tryon
from Alfred A. Knopf
LADY recreates a small New England town of the 1930s and '40s. Seen through the eyes of an eight-year-old boy, Woody, we meet Lady, a charming widow, owner of an imposing home on the Green. As does Woody, we come to care for and love his "special friend."
But there is more to Lady than meets the eye, and we share Woody's fear as he closes in on Lady's terrible secret.
Crowned Heads
CROWNED HEADS takes us into the interlocking lives of four film stars. First we meet Fedora, longest-reigning beauty of them all.
Sexy Lorna comes next. We find her in a secluded resort trying to heal herself after many jobs, many men, and much trouble.
Bobbitt is a former kiddie star now in his thirties and still "adorable." And Willie, for decades a worldwide symbol of elegance and wit, is alone in his Hollywood showplace mourning his past until the future breaks in.
