More About This Book

Overview

Esswood House. Home and estate of the Seneschal family, aristocratic patrons of the literary arts for well over a hundred years. D. H. Lawrence, T. S. Eliot, Ford Madox Ford, and Henry James were privileged to call themselves guests and Esswood Fellows. Even minor poets such as Isobel Standish found in Esswood a respite from the outer world and its refined atmosphere an inspiration for her work. There was always talk of a hidden secret in Esswood’s past, and the Seneschal children were often so pale and sickly, but don’t all English manor houses have a few ghost stories to call their own?

When Professor William Standish receives the rare honor of an Esswood Fellowship, and the chance to study Isobel’s private manuscripts at close hand, he is thrilled beyond his wildest ambitions. But something seems slightly off at Esswood House. He hears faint laughter in the halls, the pitter-pattering of small feet in the night; strange faces appear in the windows of the library, and there are those giant dollhouses in the basement . . .

Never before published as a separate volume, Mrs. God is a very different kind of ghost story from one of America’s most celebrated authors.

    Waste!

    I usually like Peter Straub and find his books very interesting, but I found this story was a little boring for my taste. And for the love of God, is it too much to ask that Barnes and Noble let Nook readers kmow how many pages are in a book???? I wasted over $15 for a book that only had 170 pages!!!!! What a lame way to treat your customers:(

    Don't waste your money

    First, I was irked because I realized that I paid 14 bucks for a 130 page book. Why doesnt B&N let you see page count before you buy? Second, I was relieved that it was only 130 pages because this book made no sense. I had to read through to the end just to see if there was going to be something to make it all clear. There wasn't. It was tedious and vague and I am very glad that it is over. This was a total waste of my money and time.

    I haven't been creeped out reading a story in a long time, and I loved it. I meant to go to sleep 3 hours ago but made the mistake of starting this. :)
