*A New Yorker summer reading pick of 2026*
'Full of genuine black humour' LONDON REVIEW OF BOOKS
'A darkly comic treat' CHRIS POWER, OBSERVER
'Wickedly amusing' SUNDAY TIMES
'A masterpiece . . . her humour is as wicked as it is mordant' JOHN BANVILLE
*
In her gloomy mausoleum of a home, the terrifying matriarch Great Granny Webster spends her days sitting bolt upright in a Victorian chair, entirely alone except for her one-eyed maid - and her orphaned great-granddaughter, sent to stay for the sea air. She presides over three generations of ill-fated women, and a twisted family history which spools back through hedonistic 20s London to a crumbling aristocratic pile where two children are kept silently hidden in a distant wing.
This macabre, viciously funny, partly autobiographical novel cuts to the bone of a dysfunctional dynasty, and captures Blackwood at her pitch-black best.

Reseñas de la crítica
Gloriously wicked . . . Akin to gleaning family gossip from a superlatively interesting dinner party guest. . . Taut, entertaining and quite brutal
