{"product_id":"tillinghast","title":"Tillinghast","description":"'A vampire (don't say that word) novel like no other.' --Paul Tremblay, New York Times bestselling author of Horror Movie and A Head Full of Ghosts \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e'Wonderfully mysterious and gorgeously written...a boldly original take on what it means to be a monster.' --Monika Kim, Sunday Times Bestselling Author of The Eyes Are the Best Part \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eA dark and utterly original literary horror debut, following a priest whose bloodthirsty life has extended far longer than any mere human's--and is upended when a stranger comes to town \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eStutley Tillinghast lives a solitary life, ostensibly as the minister of a remote rural parish in Rhode Island. For many decades now, what little human contact he's allowed himself has been brief, frenzied and bloody, and has always ended in a shallow grave in his cellar. There's a name for what he is, but he prefers not to use it: it is simple enough that he has his needs, and that when they become unbearable, he fulfils them. In his long and lonely life, he has met only one other like him--the woman he still yearns for, the one who made him what he is. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThen a girl arrives, searching for him. She has his last name, and bears an uncanny resemblance to that woman, awakening memories Tillinghast had long suppressed; the connection he feels for her is immediate and overwhelming. She's also sick, very sick, with symptoms Tillinghast recognizes all too well...and only he knows how to cure her. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eInspired by the real events of the New England vampire panic of the nineteenth century, TILLINGHAST is a novel to sink your teeth into: at once a gripping, atmospheric horror that turns the classic monster narrative on its head; a literary work of exceptional prose about giving into--or resisting--our impulses; and a remarkably moving father-daughter story that will leave you unexpectedly hopeful--and rooting, despite your every instinct, for the killers.","brand":"Buchserien.de","offers":[{"title":"Neuware","offer_id":55099967078738,"sku":"9798217060825","price":29.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0615\/7002\/3593\/files\/bild_8703e959-4bf1-4850-a65e-3fe43aeac0f4.jpg?v=1792160407","url":"https:\/\/www.buchserien.de\/products\/tillinghast","provider":"Buchserien.de","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
