The listing, PETER STRAUB - Houses Without Doors has ended.
Publisher's Notes:
A schoolboy hypnotizes his little brother and discovers a dark and deadly power...
A reclusive misfit falls deeper and deeper under the spell of his favorite pulp fiction...
An ambitious young professor on sabbatical must elude the violent and ghostly world of his own ancestors...
This spectacular collection of short fiction by Peter Straub exposes the terrors that hide beneath the surface of the ordinary world...behind the walls of houses without doors. In its pages, you'll find both the strange and the familiar, including the seeds of Straub's powerful Blue Rose trilogy. These haunting tales form a series of artistic seductions that leaves the reader vulnerable to the shattering insights of a masterful writer.

Review:
"Deliciously dark....Relying more on psychological terror than real physical monsters, his stories make us think while they thrill us, and make us work a little at what they mean while we wait for the next macabre twist of the tale." Boston Herald
Review:
"This is an author who can plop seemingly conventional characters down in the middle of a seemingly familiar setting and within three pages all hell has broken loose." Los Angeles Times Book Review
