Publisher's Summary
By the New York Times best-selling author of The Bone Clocks and Cloud
Atlas comes a Publishers Weekly literary fiction top 10 pick for Fall
2015.
Keep your eyes peeled for a small, black iron door.
Down the road from a working-class British pub, along the brick wall
of a narrow alley, if the conditions are exactly right, you'll find
the entrance to Slade House. A stranger will greet you by name and invite
you inside. At first, you won't want to leave. Later, you'll find that
you can't. Every nine years, the house's residents - an odd brother
and sister - extend a unique invitation to someone who's different or
lonely: a precocious teenager, a recently divorced policeman, a shy
college student. But what really goes on inside Slade House? For those
who find out, it's already too late....
Spanning five decades, from the last days of the 1970s to the present,
leaping genres, and barreling toward an astonishing conclusion, this
intricately woven novel will pull you into a reality-warping new vision
of the haunted house story - as only David Mitchell could imagine it.
What the Critics Say
"Painstakingly imagined and crackling with narrative velocity, it's
a Dracula for the new millennium, a 'Hansel and Gretel' for grownups."
(Anthony Doerr, author of All the Light We Cannot See, winner of the
Pulitzer Prize)
"Sharp, fast, flat-out spooky, Slade House is such a hypnotic read that
you are likely to miss your subway stop in order to keep reading. And
by you, I mean me." (Daniel Handler, New York Times best-selling author
of the Lemony Snicket series)
"Fans of Mitchell's The Bone Clocks and Cloud Atlas will recognize the
interlocking narrative structure and literary-fantastical bent of this
new work." (Library Journal)
