Come Along With Me. Classic Short Stories and an Unfinished Novel

One of the most revered of American writers, Shirley Jackson, author of We Have Always Lived in the Castle, is best known for a short story that shocked American audiences and elicited the most responses of any piece in New Yorker history. Her gothic visions of small-town America employ quick, unexpected twists that turn an ordinary world into a supernatural nightmare. But horror was only one arena of her talent, and this eclectic collection reveals the full spectrum of her genius.
In addition to sixteen stories and several of the author's lectures, it contains the unfinished novel Come Along with Me, whose exploration of the quirky inner life of a lonely widow stands as one of Jackson's most psychologically probing works.

A haunting collection from an icon of American gothic writing that includes one of the most read classic American short stories.
