We have always lived in the castle
Merricat Blackwood and her sister Constance have always lived in the castle. Cut off from the world after a family tragedy, they keep to themselves in their isolated house on the hill, protected by Merricat's rituals and magic.
When their charming cousin Charles arrives, he brings with him the outside world, greed, and memories that threaten to destroy the fragile peace they have built. As the townspeople's hostility grows and the past refuses to stay buried, Merricat must decide how far she will go to keep her sister safe and to keep the world out.
Shirley Jackson's masterpiece is a chilling, darkly funny, and deeply unsettling story about sisterhood, otherness, and the price of safety. Told through the unforgettable voice of Merricat, this gothic novel will stay with you long after you close the book.
"We have always lived in the castle. We like to keep to ourselves."
