Add to basketHardcover. Condition: Very Good+. Very Good- dj. First Edition. [a good sound copy, with some mild smudging/soiling on the front cover; the jacket is moderately edgeworn, with small tears and a bit of paper loss at the spine ends, a short closed tear and some associated creasing at the bottom of the front panel, and an unfortuna…te hole torn in the front panel (about 1.5" tall and roughly in the shape of Maine)] The second novel by this Virginia-born author (1877-1969), who began writing in her fifties and authored a handful of genre-straddling novels, some with supernatural elements and all with a Southern Gothic flavor. (Several of her books are listed in both Bleiler and Hubin, which will give you some idea of their dual nature.) The jacket blurb is vaguely non-descriptive in that special jacket-blurb manner -- referring to "abstruse passion told in terms of everyday American life" and "the strength of character exerting itself in the face of inner mental struggle" and "of emotions beyond the normal" and "moments of real horror," while all the while you're saying to yourself, "yeah, but what's it ABOUT?" Well, I'll tell you: it's about a very unhappy young man of 25, just returned to his Southern hometown after three years of study in Paris, who is suffering from a bunch of personal and psychological issues, chief among which is an obsessive hatred for his father. The complex narrative, which unfolds largely in flashback, ultimately reveals that the father was a thorougly villainous fellow who reciprocated his son's hatred, and who had been responsible for numerous abuses of both his wife and son (which I won't spoil by revealing here) which had contributed to the latter's sorry state of mind and emotion.
