The book is in Near Fine condition with clean boards, strong title gilt on the spine and front board, lightly foxed page blocks, tight binding, mild spine tilt, lightly rolled spine ends, mild edge wear and lightly rubbed corners. The interior of the book is also in Near Fine condition with a one inch diameter coffee stain on the first free end paper and no other marks, inscriptions, or signs of ownership.

Thomas Tryon’s best-selling novel about a homegrown monster is an eerie examination of the darkness that dwells within everyone. It is a landmark of psychological horror that is a worthy descendent of the books of Robert Louis Stevenson, Shirley Jackson, and Patricia Highsmith.
