About this title

Synopsis

One of the touchstone horror novels of the 1970s, Harvest Home was Thomas Tryon's second novel and was published to wide critical and commercial acclaim. This new edition features the original color dust jacket art by Paul Bacon, new interior works by Alex McVey, a new introduction by Tim Curran, and an afterword by a number of Tryon associates.

About the Author

Thomas Tryon (1926–1991), actor turned author, made his bestselling debut with The Other (1971), which spent nearly six months on the New York Times bestseller list and allowed him to quit acting for good; a film adaptation, with a screenplay by Tryon and directed by Robert Mulligan, appeared in 1972. Tryon wrote two more novels set in the fictional Pequot Landing of The Other—Harvest Home (1973) and Lady (1974). Crowned Heads (1976) detailed the lives of four fictional film stars and All That Glitters (1986) explored the dark side of the golden age of Hollywood. Night Magic (published posthumously in 1995) was a modern-day retelling of The Sorcerer’s Apprentice.
