Millar, Margaret

Published by Random House, N.Y., 1949

About this Item

First edition, so stated. Color variation to boards, very light edge wear in dust jacket, unclipped, $2.50 price intact, piece out at head of spine, a few closed tears, rubbed and soiled at rear. Millar gazes unflinchingly at the psychology of a deranged adult and their struggle to control their basest impulses. Suspenseful to the last, The Cannibal Heart could only be written by an author that was unafraid of asking the most unsettling of questions and peering into the darkest cravings of the human soul. This story covers three days in the lives of a young New York family who become lodgers at the country house of a mysterious widow who is in possession of "The Cannibal Heart." The widow will stop at nothing, even murder, to get what the heart desires.
