Piranha to Scurfy and Other Stories
|
EMBED THIS CLIP |
Title Description Ruth Rendell, the internationally celebrated mystery novelist, has written a deeply unsettling collection of new stories that are evocative of Stephen King and Edgar Allen Poe. These stories provide a natural showcase for Rendell's remarkable talent and diversity. "Pirhana to Scurfy" tells of a singular curmudgeon who devotes his life to writing scathing letters to newly published authors, pointing out their errors. He does so in memory of his mother, who lies buried in the garden, for reasons that emerge to haunting effect. "The Wink" recounts the story of a woman, raped years ago in a small English town, who waits a lifetime for a perfectly satisfying moment of revenge. Nine stories grace this collection, each one an achievement of the very highest order. "Ruth Rendell terrorizes with the subtle authority of a cat burglar in the night."
